Define a
saved-value
object which has a name and a value:
(defstruct saved-value
name
value)
The objects are defined using
def-saved-value
and stored on the plist of their name:
(defmacro def-saved-value (name value)
`(dspec:def (def-saved-value ,name)
(when (record-definition `(def-saved-value ,',name)
(dspec:location))
(setf (get ',name 'saved-value)
(make-saved-value :name ',name
:value ,value))
',name)))
Define a function to retrieve the
saved-value
object:
(defun find-saved-value (name)
(get name 'saved-value))
Define a macro to access a
saved-value
object:
(defmacro saved-value (name)
`(saved-value-value (find-saved-value ',name)))
Define a dspec class for
def-saved-value
dspecs:
(dspec:define-dspec-class def-saved-value nil
"Defined saved values"
:definedp
#'(lambda (name)
;; Find any object that def-saved-value recorded
(not (null (find-saved-value name))))
:undefiner
#'(lambda (dspec)
;; Remove what def-saved-value recorded
`(remprop ,(dspec:dspec-name dspec) 'saved-value))
:object-dspec
#'(lambda (obj)
;; Given a saved-value object, we can reconstruct its dspec
(and (saved-value-p obj)
`(def-saved-value ,(saved-value-name obj)))))
For completeness, define a form parser that generates dspecs from forms:
(dspec:define-form-parser
(def-saved-value
(:parser dspec:single-form-form-parser)))
Note:
this form parser for
def-saved-value
is not strictly necessary, because the system provides an implicit form parser which recognizes definitions beginning with "def".
