make-inferencing-state

Makes a new inferencing state.

make-inferencing-state name &key set-current-p if-exists => state

`name`⇩	Any object.
`set-current-p`⇩	A boolean.
`if-exists`⇩	Either `:error`, `:supersede` or `:overwrite`.

state

An inferencing state.

The function make-inferencing-state returns an inferencing state named by name.

If an inferencing state with the same name already exists (as compared using eql), then the value of if-exists determines what happens:

`:error`	A continuable error is signaled. Invoking the continue restart causes the existing inferencing state to be returned.
`:supersede`	The existing inferencing state is destroyed and a new one is returned.
`:overwrite`	The existing inferencing state is returned.

If set-current-p is non-nil, then *inferencing-state* is set to new inferencing state.
