[slime-devel] Re: How to inspect locals

I thought only arguments to the function, not locals (let, m-v-b, etc) bound in the function would appear. Am I wrong?

That depends on the debug level -- and the optimizations the compiler does. Generally speaking DEBUG 2 and using the variable more then once should make the variable visible in the debugger. Eg. (defun foo (x) (declare (optimize (debug 2))) (let ((y (1+ x))) (break) (cons y y))) Cheers, -- Nikodemus Schemer: "Buddha is small, clean, and serious."
