Helu * "Denis Papathanasiou" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : | I'm profiling an application, and since I don't know where to look, I | start by calling (profile:profile-all). | | After the app has run a bit, I run (profile:report-time) on one of the | functions, and it works, i.e. I get a report as expected. | | But when I try to map (profile:report-time) across all the functions | being profiled (as defined in profile:*timed-functions*), I get this, | and I'm not sure why: | | * (mapcar #'(lambda (fn-name) (profile:report-time fn-name)) | profile:*timed-functions*) | | ; Note: Variable FN-NAME defined but never used. | | | Error in FWRAPPERS:FIND-FWRAPPER: the function FN-NAME is undefined. | [Condition of type UNDEFINED-FUNCTION] | | profile:*timed-functions* does contain a list of functions, and if I | try any of those one at a time in (profile:report-time), it works. | | So why is the mapping problematic?
PROFILE:PROFILE-TIME is a Macro. * (macroexpand-1 '(profile:report-time fn-name)) => (PROFILE::%REPORT-TIMES '(FN-NAME)) i.e. it ends up looking for #'FN-NAME and so it is not to be used programatically. In this respect it is similar to the TRACE/UNTRACE -- Madhu
