[Chicken-users] Macros at runtime

[Carlos Pita]

Hi all!

I've a strange problem when including macros from the
interpreter. For example, the file test.scm below runs
fine if csi first evals (use syntax-case) and then
includes it; but if csi directly includes the file
(which itself requires syntax-case), an error occurs: 


test.scm -------------

(use syntax-case)

(define-syntax sr-and
  (syntax-rules ()
    ((_) #t)
    ((_ e) e)
    ((_ e1 e2 e3 ...)
     (if e1 (and e2 e3 ...) #f))))



This fails -----------------

csi> (include "test")
; loading syntax-case.so ...
; loading syntax-case-chicken-macros.scm ...
Error: illegal non-atomic object: ()



This not -------------------

csi> (use syntax-case)
; loading syntax-case.so
; loading syntax-case-chicken-macros.scm ...
csi> (include "test")
csi> (sr-and 0 1)
1


I can't see what am I doing wrong. Also, as we are on
it, what is -run-time-macros supposed to do? The
documentation says "macros are made available at
run-time", but even when compiling with
-run-time-macros I can't expand sr-and from csi just
loading the .so (I have to include the .scm).

Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Carlos
