[Chicken-users] define-struct and equality

[Carlos Pita]

Hi all,

is there any warranty regarding equality and records? Experimentally I got:

#;62> (define-record point x y)
#;63> (define p1 (make-point 1 1))
#;64> (define p2 (make-point 1 1))
#;65> (equal? p1 p2)
#t
#;66> (eq? p1 p2)
#f
#;68> (eqv? p1 p2)
#f

So by-value equality seems to work between different record instances with equal field values, but I'm not sure that I can infer that from this example.
Should I define my own equality predicate?

Thank you in advance
Cheers,
Carlos
