** Function type declaration.
|
||||
It is now possible to declare the expected type of a function's
|
||||
arguments and its return type using the 'declare' macro.
|
||||
|
||||
** New types 'closure' and 'interpreted-function'.
|
||||
'interpreted-function' is the new type used for interpreted functions,
|
||||
and 'closure' is the common parent type of 'interpreted-function'

** New function declaration and property 'important-return-value'.
|

*** New 'type' function declaration.
|
||||
The declaration '(type TYPE)' specifies the type of a function.
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
(defun hello (x y)
|
||||
(declare (type (function (integer boolean) string)))
|
||||
...)
|
||||
|
||||
specifies that the function takes two arguments, an integer and a
|
||||
boolean, and returns a string. This information can be used by the
|
||||
native compiler to produce better code, but specifying an incorrect type
|
||||
may lead to Emacs crashing. See the Info node "(elisp) Declare Form"
|
||||
for further information.
|
||||
|
||||
+++
|
||||
*** New 'important-return-value' function declaration and property.
|
||||
The declaration '(important-return-value t)' sets the
|
||||
'important-return-value' property which indicates that the function
|
||||
return value should probably not be thrown away implicitly.
