[parenscript-devel] Syntax error in treating functions as expressions - parenscript-devel - mailman3.common-lisp.net

4 May 2010


      I've finally got back to working through the output of the new PS, and have
hit another couple of errors. The following form:
(lambda (x)
  (apply (lambda (y) (bar (1+ y))) x))
...compiles to...
function (x) {
    return function (y) {
        return bar(y + 1);
    }.apply(this, x);
};
... which is a syntax error. Earlier PS put parentheses around the inner
function, which is correct:
function (x) {
    return (function (y) {
        return bar(y + 1);
    }).apply(this, x);
};
