Makes a function available to the current document
Supported Platforms: Windows, Mac OS, and Web
Signature
(vl-doc-export 'function)
- 'function
-
Type: Subroutine
A symbol naming the function to be exported.
Return Values
Type: T
Always returns T.
Remarks
When issued from a VLX that runs in its own namespace, vl-doc-export exposes the specified function to any document namespace that loads the VLX.
The vl-doc-export function should be used only at the top level in a file, and never inside other forms (for example, not within a defun).
Examples
The following code shows the contents of a file named kertrats.lsp. This file is compiled into a VLX that runs in its own namespace. The VLX file is named kertrats.vlx. The vl-doc-export call makes the kertrats function visible to any document that loads kertrats.vlx:
(vl-doc-export 'kertrats) (defun kertrats () (princ "This function goes nowhere") )
