I'm in the debugsys image chasing a few things and came across this
interesting variable. In an axiom image type:
)lisp (setq |$reportInstantiations| t)
and then type an expression such as
-> 1
# instantiated/# dropped/domain name
1 0 PositiveInteger
1 0 OutputForm
1 0 NonNegativeInteger
1 0 List OutputForm
1 0 Integer
Totals: 5 instantiated
0 inside coerceInteractive
0 inside canCoerceFrom
0 inside evalMmCond
0 reinstantiated
0 dropped
5 distinct domains instantiated/dropped
I'm not sure how useful you'll find that information but it's useful
to know you can get it. I'm writing a chapter on debugging in book 4
of the axiom volumes which will contain this and other debugging tips,
techniques and useful tidbits.
