Hi
I've read the manual on how asdf finds the files to load, i.e. the asd files. But, if you want to follow along when it does that calculation, in case it goes wrong, how do you do that?
I seem to remember this being posted to the list ages back, but have no way of searching that history.
Some time ago, Faré offered this advice:
You can `(alexandria:hash-table-alist asdf/source-registry::*source-registry*)`
or for a higher-level view, you can `(asdf/source-registry:flatten-source-registry)`
then again, if you use the newfangled source-registry-cache, you can `find ~/common-lisp -name .cl-source-registry.cache`
I'm not sure what you want to debug, so it's hard to tell how to help you.
That was just what I needed. Making sure the registry contained what I expected was key. Many thanks Robert! I knew Faré had posted that, but I was stupid and had not saved it. Maybe it could be fitted to the manual some place? -andreas -- "economics is a pseudoscience; the astrology of our time" Kim Stanley Robinson
