2:47:13rotateqhehe i saw a video from Edi where he talks about the 2nd version for his popular math book and in the end "so also my book 'Common Lisp Recipes', more a reference for advanced users, the dumb title isn't by me, but the publisher" ^^
11:05:21attila_lendvaiwhat's the semantics of the :default-initargs of defclass? i have added one for a baseclass, and when i inspect the instance of a subclass of it, i can see it in SBCL's internal slots on the class, but the slot-value on the instance is not what i have specified.
11:06:29jackdanielinitargs are passed to initialize-instance, reinitialize-instance and shared-initialize
11:06:44jackdanielthey may but don't have to be used to provide values for slots
11:08:08jackdaniel(i.e you may specify an initarg is not not associated with any slot)
11:08:47attila_lendvaioh, the slot has a :initform, probably that's why it's completely ignored. thanks jackdaniel!
11:10:54jackdanielI think that you have an initform in the subclass that you create the instance of, and you have a default initarg in the superclass's form
11:11:49jackdanielbut then even without the initform the superclass's initarg would not take effect
