recursive-restart
Implements several forms for using restarts recursively. The first is recursive-restart-case
, which
works exactly like CL's native restart-case
, except you can invoke the restarts from the restart
handlers in a mutually-recursive fashion, such as this:
(let ((invoked-bar nil))
(recursive-restart-case
(invoke-restart 'foo)
(foo ()
(format t "Invoked FOO.~%")
(if invoked-bar
:done
(invoke-restart 'bar)))
(bar ()
(format t "Invoked BAR.~%")
(setf invoked-bar t)
(format t "Invoking FOO again...~%")
(invoke-restart 'foo))))
Also provided is restart-labels
, which is a wrapper macro that allows you to specify the handlers
before the body, which gains an implicit PROGN. The syntax mirrors that of CL's labels
form:
(restart-labels
((foo () (format t "Invoked FOO.~%"))
(bar () (format t "Invoked BAR.~%")))
(format t "Starting body...~%")
(invoke-restart 'foo))
restart-bind*
is to restart-labels
as let*
is to let
, ie, each handler is wrapped in a new recursive-restart-case
.
