Q: How do I query what files need to be recompiled?

A: With ASDF 3, you can (asdf:required-components system :force nil :force-not nil :keep-component 'asdf:cl-source-file :keep-operation 'asdf:compile-op)

However, with ASDF 3.1.6, I find that this does not work as advertised:

;;; system1.asd (asdf:defsystem :system1 :serial t :default-component-class asdf:cl-source-file.cl :components ((:file "one") (:file "two") (:file "three")))

cl-user(8): (asdf:compile-system :system1) t

cl-user(9): (asdf:required-components :system1 :force nil :force-not nil :keep-component 'asdf:cl-source-file :keep-operation 'asdf:compile-op) (#<asdf/lisp-action:cl-source-file.cl "system1" "one"> #<asdf/lisp-action:cl-source-file.cl "system1" "two"> #<asdf/lisp-action:cl-source-file.cl "system1" "three">)

Is there a new way to achieve the same goal?

If you want only the components that have are in need of recompiling, you need to further filter based on (compute-action-stamp nil o c), as done in asdf/plan:perform-plan.

Also, if you want files in other systems as well as in the current one, you need to specify :other-systems t.
