[slime-devel] sbcl and cross references

Are cross references supposed to work with sbcl? Specifically, should slime-list-callees work or is a "not implemented" message expected? -- Ian Tegebo

Yes, it's supposed to work. There are two kinds of commands: 1) who-calls, who-binds etc. use the index built by the compiler. You have to set some options (which I don't know, but I'm sure it's documented in the SBCL manual) to built the index. 2) list-callers and list-callees work by scanning the heap for function objects. This works without special compiler switches, but it's less precise. How you get the "not implemented" message is bit a mystery to me. Most of those function are (no longer) implemented in swank-sbcl but are now maintained by the SBCL team in the sb-introspect package. Helmut
