5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Macros

Macro: define-accumulation-binding (name (var &rest args) &body body)

Defines a binding for an accumulator.

This is identical to DEFINE-FORM-BINDING with the exception that the secondary value is set to a (RETURN-FOR var) for you, meaning the variable’s contents are returned from the FOR upon normal termination.

See DEFINE-FORM-BINDING

Package

for.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: define-alias-binding (name referenced-binding-name)

Defines an alias for a binding.

See BINDING

Package

for.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: define-direct-binding (name args &body body)

Defines a binding function.

Binding functions can return three values:

1. A single "surrounding form" that will go around the resulting loop. If you require multiple surrounding forms, you can use WITH-INTERLEAVING.
2. A form to run during each iteration. They will be run before any body forms. 3. A form whose value is returned by the FOR.
4. A form to run during each iteration. They will be run *after* any body forms.

The arguments that the function receives are directly translated from the respective binding expression. One argument will always be passed in the very least: the variable specified for the binding.

Note that a binding function receives its arguments as literals and thus must process them like a macro would (destructive operations are bad juju).

Also note that unlike normal functions, the &environment lambda-list argument is available and its value will be passed on from the calling FOR macro.

See BINDING
See REMOVE-BINDING

Package

for.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: define-form-binding (name (var &rest args) &body body)

Defines a binding that receives its arguments as literals.

&AUX variables in the ARGS lambda-list receive special treatment: they are bound to gensyms within the definition body. Their value is only evaluated and set within the expanded binding. This means that &AUX variables give you a convenient way to introduce necessary helper variables to the expanded binding. References to other AUX variables or the VAR are automatically rewritten to the appropriate gensym.

VAR can also accept a default value, which receives the same semantic treatment as &AUX variables do, with the exception that it is always the last binding to be evaluated in the resulting expansion, meaning every other &AUX variable can be referenced.

The primary value returned must be the form to be evaluated on each iteration. A secondary value may be returned, which is a form to be evaluated when the loop ends normally.

See DEFINE-DIRECT-BINDING
See DEFINE-VALUE-BINDING

Package

for.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: define-form-symbol-macro-binding (name (var &rest args) &body body)

Defines a binding that receives its arguments as literals and treats the VAR as a symbol-macro.

This is the exact same as DEFINE-FORM-BINDING with the exception that the
VAR is translated into a symbol-macro binding. Its value is still translated
accordingly to make sure references to AUX variables stay intact.

See DEFINE-FORM-BINDING

Package

for.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: define-value-binding (name (var &rest args) &body body)

Defines a binding that receives its arguments as values.

The treatment of all arguments in the ARGS lambda-list is as follows: Within the definition body, they are bound to gensyms. Upon expansion of the binding, each variable is expanded to a variable binding with the respective value that was passed to the binding definition. Special exception is made for the present-p optional variables that can be specified for optional or key arguments, which are bound as usual in the definition body such that expansion may be aware of which parameters were passed. In essence, you can interpret all arguments as if treated by ONCE-ONLY.

&AUX variables in the args lambda-list receive special treatment: they are bound to gensyms within the definition body. Their value is only evaluated and set within the expanded binding. This means that AUX variables give you a convenient way to introduce necessary helper variables to the expanded binding. References to other arguments or the VAR are automatically rewritten to
the appropriate gensym.

VAR can also accept a default value, which receives the same semantic treatment as &AUX variables do, with the exception that it is always the last binding to be evaluated in the resulting expansion, meaning every other argument can be referenced.

The primary value returned must be the form to be evaluated on each iteration. A secondary value may be returned, which is a form to be evaluated when the loop ends normally.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: define-value-symbol-macro-binding (name (var &rest args) &body body)

Defines a binding that receives its arguments as values and treats the VAR as a symbol-macro.

This is the exact same as DEFINE-VALUE-BINDING with the exception that the
VAR is translated into a symbol-macro binding. Its value is still translated
accordingly to make sure references to arguments stay intact.

See DEFINE-VALUE-BINDING

Package

for.

Source

binding.lisp.

Macro: for (bindings &body body)

Loops the body with the given bindings established.

Each binding should have the form (var binding-type args*)

Sometimes a var can be either a single symbol denoting a variable, or a lambda-list to which the result is destructured and bound via UPDATE.
The support thereof depends on the binding construct.

Within the body, special iteration clauses may be present. A clause must appear at the "top-level" of the body and cannot appear as a macro-expansion.

If the loop is terminated normally by END-FOR then multiple values may be returned depending on how many bindings or clauses are present that want to return values. The order of the values is as follows: the clause values are returned in the order that the clauses appear in the body, followed by the binding values in the order of the binding expressions.

The loop may also be terminated abnormally by a direct call to RETURN-FOR or RETURN.

Macro: update (place value-form)

Allows updating the PLACE with a new value.

Unlike just (setf place value), PLACE can also be a lambda-list where each variable is then properly updated with the respective element from value list.

Package

for-minimal.

Macro: with-interleaving (&body body)

Interleave the body forms.

Essentially this means that the last form is appended to the form before it and this is then appended to the form before that, and so on.

NEXT — Function of zero arguments that returns the next element. HAS-MORE — Function of zero arguments that returns whether there are more elements available.
UPDATE — Function of one argument that sets the current element to the given value if possible.
END — Function of zero arguments to finalise the iteration.

Iterators may specialise on this method to return tailored stepping functions that avoid the CLOS dispatch cost. Note that calling these functions may or may not change the internal iterator state.

5.2.2 Macros

Macro: define-direct-clause (name args &body body)

Defines a clause function.

Clause functions can return three values:

1. A single "surrounding form" that will go around the resulting loop. If you require multiple surrounding forms, you can use WITH-INTERLEAVING.
2. A form to run during each iteration.
3. A form whose value is returned by the FOR.

The arguments that the function receives are directly translated from the respective clause expression.

Note that a clause function receives its arguments as literals and thus must process them like a macro would (destructive operations are bad juju).

Also note that unlike normal functions, the &environment lambda-list argument is available and its value will be passed on from the calling FOR macro.

Macro: define-simple-clause (name args &body body)

&AUX variables in the args lambda-list receive special treatment: they are bound to gensyms within the definition body. Their value is only evaluated and set within the expanded clause. This means that AUX variables give you a convenient way to introduce necessary helper variables to the expanded clause. References to other &AUX are automatically rewritten to the appropriate gensym.

The primary value returned must be the form to be evaluated on each iteration. A secondary value may be returned, which is a form to be evaluated when the loop ends normally.

Function: convert-bindings (bindings)

Translates the given binding expressions into their respective parts.

Each binding must be a list of the following structure:

BINDING ::= (PLACE binding-type argument*)
PLACE ::= variable | lambda-list
variable — A symbol naming a variable to bind the result of the binding to. lambda-list — If the binding result is a list, destructure it by this lambda- list, binding the respective symbols.
binding-type — The type of binding determines how the PLACE is initialised and how it changes each iteration.
argument — An argument to the binding. Depending on the binding it may be evaluated once or in every iteration.

If an unknown binding is referenced, an error is signalled.

Returns three values:
1. A list of all surrounding forms
2. A list of all body forms
3. A list of all value forms

Function: convert-clauses (forms)

Translates the given body forms into their respective parts.

If a body form is noticed that matches a clause –by virtue of being a list and the first item thereof being a symbol that translates to a clause name– then it is replaced by the form computed by the clause function.

Returns three values:
1. A list of all surrounding forms
2. A list of all body forms
3. A list of all value forms
