I thought you might say that. Is it possible to document that this is the official way to catch compilation errors? Why does it call (reset) instead of (error)? (execute) calls its arguments in a for-each loop, is it safe to escape out of this loop via call/cc from the reset handler? Do I need to worry about the stack? Do I need to worry the reset handler might be called due to a real exception? This seems to work to convert the call to reset into an exception, does it make sense? (let ((old-reset (##sys#reset-handler))) (parameterize ((##sys#reset-handler (lambda () (parameterize ((##sys#reset-handler old-reset)) (error 'execute "compilation error"))))) (compile file.scm))) _______________________________________________ Chicken-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-hackers
