Hi,
I was trying to roll an iterate driver for iterating over dates and I am stuck with a problem. When using defmacro-driver, I am unable to get the value passed in from to and other sequence classes. I tried with the example given in the manual (chapter "Rolling your own"), but hit the same problem. The manual says:
"We can now refer to parameters from, to, by, etc. which contain either the values for
the corresponding keyword, or nil if the keyword was not supplied. Implementing the right
code for these keywords is cumbersome but not difficult; it is left as an exercise."
the corresponding keyword, or nil if the keyword was not supplied. Implementing the right
code for these keywords is cumbersome but not difficult; it is left as an exercise."
But I guess I am one of the dumb few who failed the exercise :)) The following is my attempt with the example given in the manual:
(defmacro-driver (FOR var IN-WHOLE-VECTOR v &sequence)
"All the elements of a vector (disregards fill-pointer)"
(let ((vect (gensym))
(end (gensym))
(index (gensym))
(myfrm (gensym "myfrm"))
(kwd (if generate 'generate 'for)))
`(progn
(with ,vect = ,v)
(with ,myfrm = ,from)
(with ,end = (array-dimension ,vect 0))
(with ,index = -1)
(,kwd ,var next (progn (incf ,index)
(if (>= ,index ,end) (terminate))
(format t "myfrm: ~a~%" ,myfrm)
(aref ,vect ,index))))))
I tried using the driver with: (a is an array of 10 elements)
(iter (for v in-whole-vector a from 5 below 8)
(print v))
I get the following error:
(iter (for v in-whole-vector a from 5 below 8)
(print v))
I get the following error:
The variable FROM is unbound.

I am using ubuntu maverick, 10.10, SBCL 1.0.45 64 bit.
I tried the following:
(with ,myfrm = from)
I get an error:

2: (SWANK::EVAL-REGION "(iter (for v in-whole-vector a from 5 below 8)\n (print v))\n")
3: ((LAMBDA ()))
2) (with ,myfrm = :from)
This does not throw any error, but just prints
myfrm: FROM
instead of the value given
I want to use defclause-driver with the sequence keywords, I could not figure out how to get the values passed in from, to and other such clauses. Can anyone please provide some pointers?
