You can even pass it directly to make:
CXXFLAGS=-DSCM_DEBUG_TYPING_STRICTNESS=2 make
See also the documentation in /usr/include/libguile/__scm.h (:
"
* A value of 2 provides a maximum level of compile time type checking since
* the SCM datatype will be declared as a struct. This setting should be used
* for _compile time_ type checking only, since the compiled result is likely
* to be quite inefficient. The right way to make use of this option is to do
* a 'make clean; make CFLAGS=-DSCM_DEBUG_TYPING_STRICTNESS=2', fix your
* errors, and then do 'make clean; make'.
"
However, I'm not sure if this will really work out or give us much benefit.
In particular, we have lots of checks for == SCM_EOL or == SCM_BOOL_T. E.g.
very deep inside the core of lilypond:
inline bool ly_cheap_is_list (SCM x) {return scm_is_pair (x) || x==SCM_EOL; }
Is this really not allowed?
We should definitely wait for Han-Wen to respond, since he is a Guile
developer and probably has the deepest knowledge of us all. Before we get a
definitive statement, I don't think it's a good idea to let any frog spend
some time on it.
Cheers,
Reinhold
