41 ;; @ Introduction:
|
|
42 ;; ===============
|
|
43 ;; This package implements a full-fledged Lisp-style advice mechanism
|
|
44 ;; for Emacs Lisp. Advice is a clean and efficient way to modify the
|
|
45 ;; behavior of Emacs Lisp functions without having to keep personal
|
|
46 ;; modified copies of such functions around. A great number of such
|
|
47 ;; modifications can be achieved by treating the original function as a
|
|
48 ;; black box and specifying a different execution environment for it
|
|
49 ;; with a piece of advice. Think of a piece of advice as a kind of fancy
|
|
50 ;; hook that you can attach to any function/macro/subr.
|
|
51
|
|
52 ;; @ Highlights:
|
|
53 ;; =============
|
|
54 ;; - Clean definition of multiple, named before/around/after advices
|
|
55 ;; for functions, macros, subrs and special forms
|
|
56 ;; - Full control over the arguments an advised function will receive,
|
|
57 ;; the binding environment in which it will be executed, as well as the
|
|
58 ;; value it will return.
|
|
59 ;; - Allows re/definition of interactive behavior for functions and subrs
|
|
60 ;; - Every piece of advice can have its documentation string which will be
|
|
61 ;; combined with the original documentation of the advised function at
|
|
62 ;; call-time of `documentation' for proper command-key substitution.
|
|
63 ;; - The execution of every piece of advice can be protected against error
|
|
64 ;; and non-local exits in preceding code or advices.
|
|
65 ;; - Simple argument access either by name, or, more portable but as
|
|
66 ;; efficient, via access macros
|
|
67 ;; - Allows the specification of a different argument list for the advised
|
|
68 ;; version of a function.
|
|
69 ;; - Advised functions can be byte-compiled either at file-compile time
|
|
70 ;; (see preactivation) or activation time.
|
|
71 ;; - Separation of advice definition and activation
|
|
72 ;; - Forward advice is possible, that is
|
|
73 ;; as yet undefined or autoload functions can be advised without having to
|
|
74 ;; preload the file in which they are defined.
|
|
75 ;; - Forward redefinition is possible because around advice can be used to
|
|
76 ;; completely redefine a function.
|
|
77 ;; - A caching mechanism for advised definition provides for cheap deactivation
|
|
78 ;; and reactivation of advised functions.
|
|
79 ;; - Preactivation allows efficient construction and compilation of advised
|
|
80 ;; definitions at file compile time without giving up the flexibility of
|
|
81 ;; the advice mechanism.
|
|
82 ;; - En/disablement mechanism allows the use of different "views" of advised
|
|
83 ;; functions depending on what pieces of advice are currently en/disabled
|
|
84 ;; - Provides manipulation mechanisms for sets of advised functions via
|
|
85 ;; regular expressions that match advice names
|
|
86
|
|
87 ;; @ How to get Advice for Emacs-18:
|
|
88 ;; =================================
|
|
89 ;; `advice18.el', a version of Advice that also works in Emacs-18 is available
|
|
90 ;; either via anonymous ftp from `ftp.cs.buffalo.edu (128.205.32.9)' with
|
|
91 ;; pathname `/pub/Emacs/advice18.el', or from one of the Emacs Lisp archive
|
|
92 ;; sites, or send email to <hans@cs.buffalo.edu> and I'll mail it to you.
|
|
93
|
|
94 ;; @ Overview, or how to read this file:
|
|
95 ;; =====================================
|
|
96 ;; NOTE: This documentation is slightly out of date. In particular, all the
|
|
97 ;; references to Emacs-18 are obsolete now, because it is not any longer
|
|
98 ;; supported by this version of Advice. An up-to-date version will soon be
|
|
99 ;; available as an info file (thanks to the kind help of Jack Vinson and
|
|
100 ;; David M. Smith). Until then you can use `outline-mode' to help you read
|
|
101 ;; this documentation (set `outline-regexp' to `";; @+"').
|
|
102 ;;
|
|
103 ;; The four major sections of this file are:
|
|
104 ;;
|
|
105 ;; @ This initial information ...installation, customization etc.
|
|
106 ;; @ Advice documentation: ...general documentation
|
|
107 ;; @ Foo games: An advice tutorial ...teaches about Advice by example
|
|
108 ;; @ Advice implementation: ...actual code, yeah!!
|
|
109 ;;
|
|
110 ;; The latter three are actual headings which you can search for
|
|
111 ;; directly in case `outline-mode' doesn't work for you.
|
|
112
|
|
113 ;; @ Restrictions:
|
|
114 ;; ===============
|
|
115 ;; - Only works with Emacs 19.26 or later and XEmacs 19.12 or later.
|
|
116 ;; - Advised functions/macros/subrs will only exhibit their advised behavior
|
|
117 ;; when they are invoked via their function cell. This means that advice will
|
|
118 ;; not work for the following:
|
|
119 ;; + advised subrs that are called directly from other subrs or C-code
|
|
120 ;; + advised subrs that got replaced with their byte-code during
|
|
121 ;; byte-compilation (e.g., car)
|
|
122 ;; + advised macros which were expanded during byte-compilation before
|
|
123 ;; their advice was activated.

|
|
126 ;; ==========
|
|
127 ;; This package is an extension and generalization of packages such as
|
|
128 ;; insert-hooks.el written by Noah S. Friedman, and advise.el written by
|
|
129 ;; Raul J. Acevedo. Some ideas used in here come from these packages,
|
|
130 ;; others come from the various Lisp advice mechanisms I've come across
|
|
131 ;; so far, and a few are simply mine.
|
|
132
|
|
133 ;; @ Comments, suggestions, bug reports:
|
|
134 ;; =====================================
|
|
135 ;; If you find any bugs, have suggestions for new advice features, find the
|
|
136 ;; documentation wrong, confusing, incomplete, or otherwise unsatisfactory,
|
|
137 ;; have any questions about Advice, or have otherwise enlightening
|
|
138 ;; comments feel free to send me email at <hans@cs.buffalo.edu>.
|
|
139
|
|
140 ;; @ Safety Rules and Emergency Exits:
|
|
141 ;; ===================================
|
|
142 ;; Before we begin: CAUTION!!
|
|
143 ;; Advice provides you with a lot of rope to hang yourself on very
|
|
144 ;; easily accessible trees, so, here are a few important things you
|
|
145 ;; should know: Once Advice has been started with `ad-start-advice'
|
|
146 ;; (which happens automatically when you load this file), it
|
|
147 ;; generates an advised definition of the `documentation' function, and
|
|
148 ;; it will enable automatic advice activation when functions get defined.
|
|
149 ;; All of this can be undone at any time with `M-x ad-stop-advice'.
|
|
150 ;;
|
|
151 ;; If you experience any strange behavior/errors etc. that you attribute to
|
|
152 ;; Advice or to some ill-advised function do one of the following:
|
|
153
|
|
154 ;; - M-x ad-deactivate FUNCTION (if you have a definite suspicion what
|
|
155 ;; function gives you problems)
|
|
156 ;; - M-x ad-deactivate-all (if you don't have a clue what's going wrong)
|
|
157 ;; - M-x ad-stop-advice (if you think the problem is related to the
|
|
158 ;; advised functions used by Advice itself)
|
|
159 ;; - M-x ad-recover-normality (for real emergencies)
|
|
160 ;; - If none of the above solves your Advice-related problem go to another
|
|
161 ;; terminal, kill your Emacs process and send me some hate mail.
|
|
162
|
|
163 ;; The first three measures have restarts, i.e., once you've figured out
|
|
164 ;; the problem you can reactivate advised functions with either `ad-activate',
|
|
165 ;; `ad-activate-all', or `ad-start-advice'. `ad-recover-normality' unadvises
|
|
166 ;; everything so you won't be able to reactivate any advised functions, you'll
|
|
167 ;; have to stick with their standard incarnations for the rest of the session.
|
|
168
|
|
169 ;; IMPORTANT: With Advice loaded always do `M-x ad-deactivate-all' before
|
|
170 ;; you byte-compile a file, because advised special forms and macros can lead
|
|
171 ;; to unwanted compilation results. When you are done compiling use
|
|
172 ;; `M-x ad-activate-all' to go back to the advised state of all your
|
|
173 ;; advised functions.
|
|
174
|
|
175 ;; RELAX: Advice is pretty safe even if you are oblivious to the above.
|
|
176 ;; I use it extensively and haven't run into any serious trouble in a long
|
|
177 ;; time. Just wanted you to be warned.
|
|
178
|
|
179 ;; @ Customization:
|
|
180 ;; ================
|
|
181
|
|
182 ;; Look at the documentation of `ad-redefinition-action' for possible values
|
|
183 ;; of this variable. Its default value is `warn' which will print a warning
|
|
184 ;; message when an already defined advised function gets redefined with a
|
|
185 ;; new original definition and de/activated.
|
|
186
|
|
187 ;; Look at the documentation of `ad-default-compilation-action' for possible
|
|
188 ;; values of this variable. Its default value is `maybe' which will compile
|
|
189 ;; advised definitions during activation in case the byte-compiler is already
|
|
190 ;; loaded. Otherwise, it will leave them uncompiled.
|
|
191
|
|
192 ;; @ Motivation:
|
|
193 ;; =============
|
|
194 ;; Before I go on explaining how advice works, here are four simple examples
|
|
195 ;; how this package can be used. The first three are very useful, the last one
|
|
196 ;; is just a joke:
|
|
197
|
|
198 ;;(defadvice switch-to-buffer (before existing-buffers-only activate)
|
|
199 ;; "When called interactively switch to existing buffers only, unless
|
|
200 ;;when called with a prefix argument."
|
|
201 ;; (interactive
|
|
202 ;; (list (read-buffer "Switch to buffer: " (other-buffer)
|
|
203 ;; (null current-prefix-arg)))))
|
|
204 ;;
|
|
205 ;;(defadvice switch-to-buffer (around confirm-non-existing-buffers activate)
|
|
206 ;; "Switch to non-existing buffers only upon confirmation."
|
|
207 ;; (interactive "BSwitch to buffer: ")
|
|
208 ;; (if (or (get-buffer (ad-get-arg 0))
|
|
209 ;; (y-or-n-p (format "`%s' does not exist, create? " (ad-get-arg 0))))
|
|
210 ;; ad-do-it))
|
|
211 ;;
|
|
212 ;;(defadvice find-file (before existing-files-only activate)
|
|
213 ;; "Find existing files only"
|
|
214 ;; (interactive "fFind file: "))
|
|
215 ;;
|
|
216 ;;(defadvice car (around interactive activate)
|
|
217 ;; "Make `car' an interactive function."
|
|
218 ;; (interactive "xCar of list: ")
|
|
219 ;; ad-do-it
|
|
220 ;; (if (interactive-p)
|
|
221 ;; (message "%s" ad-return-value)))

|
|
243 ;; ===============================================
|
|
244 ;; The main means of defining a piece of advice is the macro `defadvice',
|
|
245 ;; there is no interactive way of specifying a piece of advice. A call to
|
|
246 ;; `defadvice' has the following syntax which is similar to the syntax of
|
|
247 ;; `defun/defmacro':
|
|
248 ;;
|
|
249 ;; (defadvice <function> (<class> <name> [<position>] [<arglist>] {<flags>}*)
|
|
250 ;; [ [<documentation-string>] [<interactive-form>] ]
|
|
251 ;; {<body-form>}* )
|
|
252
|
|
253 ;; <function> is the name of the function/macro/subr to be advised.
|
|
254
|
|
255 ;; <class> is the class of the advice which has to be one of `before',
|
|
256 ;; `around', `after', `activation' or `deactivation' (the last two allow
|
|
257 ;; definition of special act/deactivation hooks).
|
|
258
|
|
259 ;; <name> is the name of the advice which has to be a non-nil symbol.
|
|
260 ;; Names uniquely identify a piece of advice in a certain advice class,
|
|
261 ;; hence, advices can be redefined by defining an advice with the same class
|
|
262 ;; and name. Advice names are global symbols, hence, the same name space
|
|
263 ;; conventions used for function names should be applied.
|
|
264
|
|
265 ;; An optional <position> specifies where in the current list of advices of
|
|
266 ;; the specified <class> this new advice will be placed. <position> has to
|
|
267 ;; be either `first', `last' or a number that specifies a zero-based
|
|
268 ;; position (`first' is equivalent to 0). If no position is specified
|
|
269 ;; `first' will be used as a default. If this call to `defadvice' redefines
|
|
270 ;; an already existing advice (see above) then the position argument will
|
|
271 ;; be ignored and the position of the already existing advice will be used.
|
|
272
|
|
273 ;; An optional <arglist> which has to be a list can be used to define the
|
|
274 ;; argument list of the advised function. This argument list should of
|
|
275 ;; course be compatible with the argument list of the original function,
|
|
276 ;; otherwise functions that call the advised function with the original
|
|
277 ;; argument list in mind will break. If more than one advice specify an
|
|
278 ;; argument list then the first one (the one with the smallest position)
|
|
279 ;; found in the list of before/around/after advices will be used.
|
|
280
|
|
281 ;; <flags> is a list of symbols that specify further information about the
|
|
282 ;; advice. All flags can be specified with unambiguous initial substrings.
|
|
283 ;; `activate': Specifies that the advice information of the advised
|
|
284 ;; function should be activated right after this advice has been
|
|
285 ;; defined. In forward advices `activate' will be ignored.
|
|
286 ;; `protect': Specifies that this advice should be protected against
|
|
287 ;; non-local exits and errors in preceding code/advices.
|
|
288 ;; `compile': Specifies that the advised function should be byte-compiled.
|
|
289 ;; This flag will be ignored unless `activate' is also specified.
|
|
290 ;; `disable': Specifies that the defined advice should be disabled, hence,
|
|
291 ;; it will not be used in an activation until somebody enables it.
|
|
292 ;; `preactivate': Specifies that the advised function should get preactivated
|
|
293 ;; at macro-expansion/compile time of this `defadvice'. This
|
|
294 ;; generates a compiled advised definition according to the
|
|
295 ;; current advice state which will be used during activation
|
|
296 ;; if appropriate. Only use this if the `defadvice' gets
|
|
297 ;; actually compiled (with a v18 byte-compiler put the `defadvice'
|
|
298 ;; into the body of a `defun' to accomplish proper compilation).
|
|
299
|
|
300 ;; An optional <documentation-string> can be supplied to document the advice.
|
|
301 ;; On call of the `documentation' function it will be combined with the
|
|
302 ;; documentation strings of the original function and other advices.
|
|
303
|
|
304 ;; An optional <interactive-form> form can be supplied to change/add
|
|
305 ;; interactive behavior of the original function. If more than one advice

306 ;; has an `(interactive ...)' specification then the first one (the one
|
|
307 ;; with the smallest position) found in the list of before/around/after
|

362 ;; advice we have to use (interactive) and then call the subr interactively
|

390 ;; @@ Argument access in advised functions:
|
|
391 ;; ========================================
|
|
392 ;; As already mentioned, the simplest way to access the arguments of an
|
|
393 ;; advised function in the body of an advice is to refer to them by name. To
|
|
394 ;; do that, the advice programmer needs to know either the names of the
|
|
395 ;; argument variables of the original function, or the names used in the
|
|
396 ;; argument list redefinition given in a piece of advice. While this simple
|
|
397 ;; method might be sufficient in many cases, it has the disadvantage that it
|
|
398 ;; is not very portable because it hardcodes the argument names into the
|
|
399 ;; advice. If the definition of the original function changes the advice
|
|
400 ;; might break even though the code might still be correct. Situations like
|
|
401 ;; that arise, for example, if one advises a subr like `eval-region' which
|
|
402 ;; gets redefined in a non-advice style into a function by the edebug
|
|
403 ;; package. If the advice assumes `eval-region' to be a subr it might break
|
|
404 ;; once edebug is loaded. Similar situations arise when one wants to use the
|
|
405 ;; same piece of advice across different versions of Emacs. Some subrs in a
|
|
406 ;; v18 Emacs are functions in v19 and vice versa, but for the most part the
|
|
407 ;; semantics remain the same, hence, the same piece of advice might be usable
|
|
408 ;; in both Emacs versions.
|
|
409
|
|
410 ;; As a solution to that advice provides argument list access macros that get
|
|
411 ;; translated into the proper access forms at activation time, i.e., when the
|
|
412 ;; advised definition gets constructed. Access macros access actual arguments
|
|
413 ;; by position regardless of how these actual argument get distributed onto
|
|
414 ;; the argument variables of a function. The rational behind this is that in
|
|
415 ;; Emacs Lisp the semantics of an argument is strictly determined by its
|
|
416 ;; position (there are no keyword arguments).
|
|
417
|
|
418 ;; Suppose the function `foo' is defined as
|
|
419 ;;
|
|
420 ;; (defun foo (x y &optional z &rest r) ....)
|
|
421 ;;
|
|
422 ;; and is then called with
|
|
423 ;;
|
|
424 ;; (foo 0 1 2 3 4 5 6)
|
|
425
|
|
426 ;; which means that X=0, Y=1, Z=2 and R=(3 4 5 6). The assumption is that
|
|
427 ;; the semantics of an actual argument is determined by its position. It is
|
|
428 ;; this semantics that has to be known by the advice programmer. Then s/he
|
|
429 ;; can access these arguments in a piece of advice with some of the
|
|
430 ;; following macros (the arrows indicate what value they will return):
|
|
431
|
|
432 ;; (ad-get-arg 0) -> 0
|
|
433 ;; (ad-get-arg 1) -> 1
|
|
434 ;; (ad-get-arg 2) -> 2
|
|
435 ;; (ad-get-arg 3) -> 3
|
|
436 ;; (ad-get-args 2) -> (2 3 4 5 6)
|
|
437 ;; (ad-get-args 4) -> (4 5 6)
|
|
438
|
|
439 ;; `(ad-get-arg <position>)' will return the actual argument that was supplied
|
|
440 ;; at <position>, `(ad-get-args <position>)' will return the list of actual
|
|
441 ;; arguments supplied starting at <position>. Note that these macros can be
|
|
442 ;; used without any knowledge about the form of the actual argument list of
|
|
443 ;; the original function.
|
|
444
|
|
445 ;; Similarly, `(ad-set-arg <position> <value-form>)' can be used to set the
|
|
446 ;; value of the actual argument at <position> to <value-form>. For example,
|
|
447 ;;
|
|
448 ;; (ad-set-arg 5 "five")
|
|
449 ;;
|
|
450 ;; will have the effect that R=(3 4 "five" 6) once the original function is
|
|
451 ;; called. `(ad-set-args <position> <value-list-form>)' can be used to set
|
|
452 ;; the list of actual arguments starting at <position> to <value-list-form>.
|
|
453 ;; For example,
|
|
454 ;;
|
|
455 ;; (ad-set-args 0 '(5 4 3 2 1 0))
|
|
456 ;;
|
|
457 ;; will have the effect that X=5, Y=4, Z=3 and R=(2 1 0) once the original
|
|
458 ;; function is called.
|
|
459
|
|
460 ;; All these access macros are text macros rather than real Lisp macros. When
|
|
461 ;; the advised definition gets constructed they get replaced with actual access
|
|
462 ;; forms depending on the argument list of the advised function, i.e., after
|

464 ;; variable names directly.
|
|
465
|
|
466 ;; @@@ Accessing argument bindings of arbitrary functions:
|
|
467 ;; =======================================================
|
|
468 ;; Some functions (such as `trace-function' defined in trace.el) need a
|
|
469 ;; method of accessing the names and bindings of the arguments of an
|
|
470 ;; arbitrary advised function. To do that within an advice one can use the
|
|
471 ;; special keyword `ad-arg-bindings' which is a text macro that will be
|
|
472 ;; substituted with a form that will evaluate to a list of binding
|
|
473 ;; specifications, one for every argument variable. These binding
|
|
474 ;; specifications can then be examined in the body of the advice. For
|
|
475 ;; example, somewhere in an advice we could do this:
|
|
476 ;;
|
|
477 ;; (let* ((bindings ad-arg-bindings)
|
|
478 ;; (firstarg (car bindings))
|
|
479 ;; (secondarg (car (cdr bindings))))
|
|
480 ;; ;; Print info about first argument
|
|
481 ;; (print (format "%s=%s (%s)"
|
|
482 ;; (ad-arg-binding-field firstarg 'name)
|
|
483 ;; (ad-arg-binding-field firstarg 'value)
|
|
484 ;; (ad-arg-binding-field firstarg 'type)))
|
|
485 ;; ....)
|
|
486 ;;
|
|
487 ;; The `type' of an argument is either `required', `optional' or `rest'.
|
|
488 ;; Wherever `ad-arg-bindings' appears a form will be inserted that evaluates
|
|
489 ;; to the list of bindings, hence, in order to avoid multiple unnecessary
|
|
490 ;; evaluations one should always bind it to some variable.
|
|
491
|
|
492 ;; @@@ Argument list mapping:
|
|
493 ;; ==========================
|
|
494 ;; Because `defadvice' allows the specification of the argument list of the
|
|
495 ;; advised function we need a mapping mechanism that maps this argument list
|
|
496 ;; onto that of the original function. For example, somebody might specify
|
|
497 ;; `(sym newdef)' as the argument list of `fset', while advice might use
|
|
498 ;; `(&rest ad-subr-args)' as the argument list of the original function
|
|
499 ;; (depending on what Emacs version is used). Hence SYM and NEWDEF have to
|
|
500 ;; be properly mapped onto the &rest variable when the original definition is
|
|
501 ;; called. Advice automatically takes care of that mapping, hence, the advice
|
|
502 ;; programmer can specify an argument list without having to know about the
|
|
503 ;; exact structure of the original argument list as long as the new argument
|
|
504 ;; list takes a compatible number/magnitude of actual arguments.
|
|
505
|
|
506 ;; @@@ Definition of subr argument lists:
|
|
507 ;; ======================================
|
|
508 ;; When advice constructs the advised definition of a function it has to
|
|
509 ;; know the argument list of the original function. For functions and macros
|
|
510 ;; the argument list can be determined from the actual definition, however,
|
|
511 ;; for subrs there is no such direct access available. In XEmacs and for some
|
|
512 ;; subrs in Emacs-19 the argument list of a subr can be determined from
|
|
513 ;; its documentation string, in a v18 Emacs even that is not possible. If
|
|
514 ;; advice cannot at all determine the argument list of a subr it uses
|
|
515 ;; `(&rest ad-subr-args)' which will always work but is inefficient because
|
|
516 ;; it conses up arguments. The macro `ad-define-subr-args' can be used by
|
|
517 ;; the advice programmer to explicitly tell advice about the argument list
|
|
518 ;; of a certain subr, for example,
|
|
519 ;;
|
|
520 ;; (ad-define-subr-args 'fset '(sym newdef))
|
|
521 ;;
|
|
522 ;; is used by advice itself to tell a v18 Emacs about the arguments of `fset'.
|
|
523 ;; The following can be used to undo such a definition:
|
|
524 ;;
|
|
525 ;; (ad-undefine-subr-args 'fset)
|
|
526 ;;
|
|
527 ;; The argument list definition is stored on the property list of the subr
|
|
528 ;; name symbol. When an argument list could be determined from the
|
|
529 ;; documentation string it will be cached under that property. The general
|
|
530 ;; mechanism for looking up the argument list of a subr is the following:
|
|
531 ;; 1) look for a definition stored on the property list
|
|
532 ;; 2) if that failed try to infer it from the documentation string and
|
|
533 ;; if successful cache it on the property list
|
|

537 ;; ===============================

|

|
|
578 ;; ===================================================================
|
|
579 ;; As already mentioned, advising happens in two stages:
|
|
580
|
|
581 ;; 1) definition of various pieces of advice
|
|
582 ;; 2) activation of all advice currently defined and enabled
|
|
583
|
|
584 ;; The advantage of this is that various pieces of advice can be defined
|
|
585 ;; before they get combined into an advised definition which avoids
|
|
586 ;; unnecessary constructions of intermediate advised definitions. The more
|
|
587 ;; important advantage is that it allows the implementation of forward advice.
|
|
588 ;; Advice information for a certain function accumulates as the value of the
|
|
589 ;; `advice-info' property of the function symbol. This accumulation is
|
|
590 ;; completely independent of the fact that that function might not yet be
|
|
591 ;; defined. The special forms `defun' and `defmacro' have been advised to
|
|
592 ;; check whether the function/macro they defined had advice information
|
|
593 ;; associated with it. If so and forward advice is enabled, the original
|
|
594 ;; definition will be saved, and then the advice will be activated. When a
|
|
595 ;; file is loaded in a v18 Emacs the functions/macros it defines are also
|
|
596 ;; defined with calls to `defun/defmacro'. Hence, we can forward advise
|
|
597 ;; functions/macros which will be defined later during a load/autoload of some
|
|
598 ;; file (for compiled files generated by jwz's byte-compiler in a v19 Emacs
|
|
599 ;; this is slightly more complicated but the basic idea is the same).

|
|
602 ;; ===============================================
|
|
603 ;; A major motivation for the development of this advice package was to bring
|
|
604 ;; a little bit more structure into the function overloading chaos in Emacs
|
|
605 ;; Lisp. Many packages achieve some of their functionality by adding a little
|
|
606 ;; bit (or a lot) to the standard functionality of some Emacs Lisp function.
|
|
607 ;; ange-ftp is a very popular package that achieves its magic by overloading
|
|
608 ;; most Emacs Lisp functions that deal with files. A popular function that's
|
|
609 ;; overloaded by many packages is `expand-file-name'. The situation that one
|
|
610 ;; function is multiply overloaded can arise easily.
|
|
611
|
|
612 ;; Once in a while it would be desirable to be able to disable some/all
|
|
613 ;; overloads of a particular package while keeping all the rest. Ideally -
|
|
614 ;; at least in my opinion - these overloads would all be done with advice,
|
|
615 ;; I know I am dreaming right now... In that ideal case the enable/disable
|
|
616 ;; mechanism of advice could be used to achieve just that.
|
|
617
|
|
618 ;; Every piece of advice is associated with an enablement flag. When the
|
|
619 ;; advised definition of a particular function gets constructed (e.g., during
|
|
620 ;; activation) only the currently enabled pieces of advice will be considered.
|
|
621 ;; This mechanism allows one to have different "views" of an advised function
|
|
622 ;; dependent on what pieces of advice are currently enabled.
|
|
623
|
|
624 ;; Another motivation for this mechanism is that it allows one to define a
|
|
625 ;; piece of advice for some function yet keep it dormant until a certain
|
|
626 ;; condition is met. Until then activation of the function will not make use
|
|
627 ;; of that piece of advice. Once the condition is met the advice can be
|
|
628 ;; enabled and a reactivation of the function will add its functionality as
|
|
629 ;; part of the new advised definition. For example, the advices of `defun'
|
|
630 ;; etc. used by advice itself will stay disabled until `ad-start-advice' is
|
|
631 ;; called and some variables have the proper values. Hence, if somebody
|
|
632 ;; else advised these functions too and activates them the advices defined
|
|
633 ;; by advice will get used only if they are intended to be used.
|
|
634
|
|
635 ;; The main interface to this mechanism are the interactive functions
|
|
636 ;; `ad-enable-advice' and `ad-disable-advice'. For example, the following
|
|
637 ;; would disable a particular advice of the function `foo':
|
|
638 ;;
|
|
639 ;; (ad-disable-advice 'foo 'before 'my-advice)
|

640 ;;
|

641 ;; This call by itself only changes the flag, to get the proper effect in

|
|
643 ;;
|
|
644 ;; (ad-activate 'foo)
|
|
645 ;;
|
|
646 ;; or interactively. To disable whole sets of advices one can use a regular
|
|
647 ;; expression mechanism. For example, let us assume that ange-ftp actually

|
|
717 ;; =================
|
|
718 ;; Constructing an advised definition is moderately expensive. In a situation
|
|
719 ;; where one package defines a lot of advised functions it might be
|
|
720 ;; prohibitively expensive to do all the advised definition construction at
|
|
721 ;; runtime. Preactivation is a mechanism that allows compile-time construction
|
|
722 ;; of compiled advised definitions that can be activated cheaply during
|
|
723 ;; runtime. Preactivation uses the caching mechanism to do that. Here's how it
|
|
724 ;; works:
|
|
725
|
|
726 ;; When the byte-compiler compiles a `defadvice' that has the `preactivate'
|
|
727 ;; flag specified, it uses the current original definition of the advised
|
|
728 ;; function plus the advice specified in this `defadvice' (even if it is
|
|
729 ;; specified as disabled) and all other currently enabled pieces of advice to
|
|
730 ;; construct an advised definition and an identifying cache-id and makes them
|
|
731 ;; part of the `defadvice' expansion which will then be compiled by the
|
|
732 ;; byte-compiler (to ensure that in a v18 emacs you have to put the
|
|
733 ;; `defadvice' inside a `defun' to get it compiled and then you have to call
|
|
734 ;; that compiled `defun' in order to actually execute the `defadvice'). When
|
|
735 ;; the file with the compiled, preactivating `defadvice' gets loaded the
|
|
736 ;; precompiled advised definition will be cached on the advised function's
|
|
737 ;; advice-info. When it gets activated (can be immediately on execution of the
|
|
738 ;; `defadvice' or any time later) the cache-id gets checked against the
|
|
739 ;; current state of advice and if it is verified the precompiled definition
|
|
740 ;; will be used directly (the verification is pretty cheap). If it couldn't get
|
|
741 ;; verified a new advised definition for that function will be built from
|
|
742 ;; scratch, hence, the efficiency added by the preactivation mechanism does
|
|
743 ;; not at all impair the flexibility of the advice mechanism.
|
|
744
|
|
745 ;; MORAL: In order get all the efficiency out of preactivation the advice
|
|
746 ;; state of an advised function at the time the file with the
|
|
747 ;; preactivating `defadvice' gets byte-compiled should be exactly
|
|
748 ;; the same as it will be when the advice of that function gets
|
|
749 ;; actually activated. If it is not there is a high chance that the
|
|
750 ;; cache-id will not match and hence a new advised definition will
|
|
751 ;; have to be constructed at runtime.
|
|
752
|
|
753 ;; Preactivation and forward advice do not contradict each other. It is
|
|
754 ;; perfectly ok to load a file with a preactivating `defadvice' before the
|
|
755 ;; original definition of the advised function is available. The constructed
|
|
756 ;; advised definition will be used once the original function gets defined and
|
|
757 ;; its advice gets activated. The only constraint is that at the time the
|
|
758 ;; file with the preactivating `defadvice' got compiled the original function
|
|
759 ;; definition was available.
|
|
760
|
|
761 ;; TIPS: Here are some indications that a preactivation did not work the way
|
|
762 ;; you intended it to work:
|
|
763 ;; - Activation of the advised function takes longer than usual/expected
|
|
764 ;; - The byte-compiler gets loaded while an advised function gets
|
|
765 ;; activated
|
|
766 ;; - `byte-compile' is part of the `features' variable even though you
|
|
767 ;; did not use the byte-compiler
|
|
768 ;; Right now advice does not provide an elegant way to find out whether
|
|
769 ;; and why a preactivation failed. What you can do is to trace the
|
|
770 ;; function `ad-cache-id-verification-code' (with the function
|
|
771 ;; `trace-function-background' defined in my trace.el package) before
|
|
772 ;; any of your advised functions get activated. After they got
|
|
773 ;; activated check whether all calls to `ad-cache-id-verification-code'
|
|
774 ;; returned `verified' as a result. Other values indicate why the
|
|
775 ;; verification failed which should give you enough information to
|
|
776 ;; fix your preactivation/compile/load/activation sequence.
|
|
777
|
|
778 ;; IMPORTANT: There is one case (that I am aware of) that can make
|
|
779 ;; preactivation fail, i.e., a preconstructed advised definition that does
|
|
780 ;; NOT match the current state of advice gets used nevertheless. That case
|
|
781 ;; arises if one package defines a certain piece of advice which gets used
|
|
782 ;; during preactivation, and another package incompatibly redefines that

783 ;; very advice (i.e., same function/class/name), and it is the second advice

|
|
786 ;; catches advice redefinitions and clears the cache in such a case).

787 ;; Catching that would make the cache verification too expensive.

|

1082 ;; by the original function. The position of the special keyword `ad-do-it'

|
|
1132 ;; most cases. However, if we define multiple pieces of advice for a single

|
1133 ;; function then activating every advice immediately is inefficient. A
|
|
1134 ;; better way to do this is to only activate the last defined advice.
|
|
1135 ;; For example:
|
|
1136 ;;
|
|
1137 ;; (defadvice foo (after fg-times-x)
|
|
1138 ;; "Multiply the result with X."

1146 ;; Now we define another advice and activate which will also activate the

|
1147 ;; previous advice `fg-times-x'. Note the use of the special variable
|
|
1148 ;; `ad-return-value' in the body of the advice which is set to the result of
|
|
1149 ;; the original function. If we change its value then the value returned by

1150 ;; the advised function will be changed accordingly:

|

3227 ;; for the cache
|
|
3228 ;; C) the type of the original function changed, e.g., a function became a
|
|
3229 ;; macro, or a subr became a function
|
|
3230 ;; D) the arglist of the original function changed
|
|
3231 ;; E) the interactive form of the original function changed
|
|
3232 ;; F) a piece of advice used in the cache got redefined before the
|
|
3233 ;; defadvice with the cached definition got loaded: This is a PROBLEM!
|
|
3234 ;;
|
|
3235 ;; Cases A and B are the normal ones. A is taken care of by `ad-add-advice'
|
|
3236 ;; which clears the cache in such a case, B is easily checked during
|
|
3237 ;; verification at activation time.
|
|
3238 ;;
|
|
3239 ;; Cases C, D and E have to be considered if one is slightly paranoid, i.e.,
|
|
3240 ;; if one considers the case that the original function could be different
|
|
3241 ;; from the one available at caching time (e.g., for forward advice of
|
|
3242 ;; functions that get redefined by some packages - such as `eval-region' gets
|
|
3243 ;; redefined by edebug). All these cases can be easily checked during
|
|
3244 ;; verification. Element 4 of the id lets one check case C, element 5 takes
|
|
3245 ;; care of case D (using t in the equality case saves some space, because the
|
|
3246 ;; arglist can be recovered at validation time from the cached definition),
|
|
3247 ;; and element 6 takes care of case E which is only a problem if the original
|
|
3248 ;; was actually a function whose interactive form was not overridden by a

|
3249 ;; piece of advice.

3745 [DOCSTRING] [INTERACTIVE-FORM]

3749 CLASS ::= `before' | `around' | `after' | `activation' | `deactivation'.
|
|
3750 NAME ::= Non-nil symbol that names this piece of advice.
|
|
3751 POSITION ::= `first' | `last' | NUMBER. Optional, defaults to `first',
|
|
3752 see also `ad-add-advice'.
|
|
3753 ARGLIST ::= An optional argument list to be used for the advised function
|
|
3754 instead of the argument list of the original. The first one found in
|
|
3755 before/around/after-advices will be used.
|
|
3756 FLAG ::= `protect'|`disable'|`activate'|`compile'|`preactivate'|`freeze'.
|
|
3757 All flags can be specified with unambiguous initial substrings.
|
|
3758 DOCSTRING ::= Optional documentation for this piece of advice.
|
|
3759 INTERACTIVE-FORM ::= Optional interactive form to be used for the advised
|
|
3760 function. The first one found in before/around/after-advices will be used.
|
|
3761 BODY ::= Any s-expression.
|
|
3762
|
|
3763 Semantics of the various flags:
|
|
3764 `protect': The piece of advice will be protected against non-local exits in
|
|
3765 any code that precedes it. If any around-advice of a function is protected
|
|
3766 then automatically all around-advices will be protected (the complete onion).
|
|
3767
|
|
3768 `activate': All advice of FUNCTION will be activated immediately if
|
|
3769 FUNCTION has been properly defined prior to this application of `defadvice'.
|
|
3770
|
|
3771 `compile': In conjunction with `activate' specifies that the resulting
|
|
3772 advised function should be compiled.
|
|
3773
|
|
3774 `disable': The defined advice will be disabled, hence, it will not be used
|
|
3775 during activation until somebody enables it.
|
|
3776
|
|
3777 `preactivate': Preactivates the advised FUNCTION at macro-expansion/compile
|
|
3778 time. This generates a compiled advised definition according to the current
|
|
3779 advice state that will be used during activation if appropriate. Only use
|
|
3780 this if the `defadvice' gets actually compiled.
|
|
3781
|
|
3782 `freeze': Expands the `defadvice' into a redefining `defun/defmacro' according
|
|
3783 to this particular single advice. No other advice information will be saved.
|
|
3784 Frozen advices cannot be undone, they behave like a hard redefinition of
|
|
3785 the advised function. `freeze' implies `activate' and `preactivate'. The
|
|
3786 documentation of the advised function can be dumped onto the `DOC' file
|
|
3787 during preloading.
