Re: [Bug-apl] Emacs lib loaded automatically

[Elias Mårtenson]

Fair enough. I'll implement this tomorrow and will let you know how it went.

Hi Elias,

SVN 271.

I think emacs mode is special because it survives )LOAD and is not visible on APL level.

If we would allow that in general then troubleshooting could become rather tricky because
you cannot easily figure the state of the interpreter.

By enforcing the use native functions for of loading shared libraries we have everything in
the workspace (even if you dont normally use workspaces) and can send it for reproducing faults.

I am OK with this, and it would certainly fill all current needs for the Emacs mode.

I personally feel that this should be more generic (ability to load more than one library; decoupling it from the --emacs flag). The decision is yours though, and the Emacs mode works equally well regardless of whether the facility is generic or not.

Please let me know when this facility is made available, and I will adapt the Emacs mode to conform.

Elias
