What is the intended behavior when this is bound to :IGNORE?
I believe that if warnings occur, they should be quashed and COMPILE-FILE should still return T, although otherwise it would not.
I'm finding a case where :IGNORE is not enough to make the compile-file succeed, but I'm grappling with trying to find a minimal test case. So I was wondering if I was interpreting this variable correctly.
thank you
The relevant bit of the manual describes acceptable values for this variable and COMPILE-FILE-FAILURE-BEHAVIOUR, but does not explain their semantics:
ASDF checks for warnings and errors when a file is compiled. The variables *COMPILE-FILE-WARNINGS-BEHAVIOUR* and *COMPILE-FILE-FAILURE-BEHAVIOUR* control the handling of any such events. The valid values for these variables are ':error', ':warn', and ':ignore'.
