#34: get-dispatch-macro-character doesn't signal errors in compiled code --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: rtoy | Owner: somebody Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: Core | Version: 19f Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- This example is from the clisp mailing list
{{{ * (defun dispatch-macro-char-p (char rt) (handler-case (prog1 t (get-dispatch-macro-character char #\x rt)) (error () nil))) DISPATCH-MACRO-CHAR-P * (dispatch-macro-char-p #$ (copy-readtable nil)) NIL * (compile 'dispatch-macro-char-p) DISPATCH-MACRO-CHAR-P NIL NIL * (dispatch-macro-char-p #$ (copy-readtable nil)) T }}}
I think this is because {{{get-dispatch-macro-character}}} is declared to be flushable. I think that's wrong since {{{get-dispatch-macro-character}}} is supposed to signal errors.
