26 ;;
27 ;; EIEIO is a series of Lisp routines which implements a subset of
28 ;; CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System. In addition, EIEIO also adds
29 ;; a few new features which help it integrate more strongly with the
30 ;; Emacs running environment.
31 ;;
32 ;; See eieio.texi for complete documentation on using this package.
33 ;;
34 ;; Note: the implementation of the c3 algorithm is based on:
35 ;; Kim Barrett et al.: A Monotonic Superclass Linearization for Dylan
36 ;; Retrieved from:
37 ;; http://192.220.96.201/dylan/linearization-oopsla96.html
38
39 ;; There is funny stuff going on with typep and deftype. This
40 ;; is the only way I seem to be able to make this stuff load properly.
41
42 ;; @TODO - fix :initform to be a form, not a quoted value
43 ;; @TODO - Prefix non-clos functions with `eieio-'.

61 (defmacro defclass (name superclasses slots &rest options-and-doc)
62 "Define NAME as a new class derived from SUPERCLASS with SLOTS.
63 OPTIONS-AND-DOC is used as the class' options and base documentation.
64 SUPERCLASSES is a list of superclasses to inherit from, with SLOTS
65 being the slots residing in that class definition. Supported tags are:
66
67 :initform - Initializing form.
68 :initarg - Tag used during initialization.
69 :accessor - Tag used to create a function to access this slot.
70 :allocation - Specify where the value is stored.
71 Defaults to `:instance', but could also be `:class'.
72 :writer - A function symbol which will `write' an object's slot.
73 :reader - A function symbol which will `read' an object.
74 :type - The type of data allowed in this slot (see `typep').
75 :documentation
76 - A string documenting use of this slot.
77
78 The following are extensions on CLOS:
79 :protection - Specify protection for this slot.
80 Defaults to `:public'. Also use `:protected', or `:private'.
81 :custom - When customizing an object, the custom :type. Public only.
82 :label - A text string label used for a slot when customizing.
83 :group - Name of a customization group this slot belongs in.
84 :printer - A function to call to print the value of a slot.
85 See `eieio-override-prin1' as an example.
86
87 A class can also have optional options. These options happen in place
88 of documentation (including a :documentation tag), in addition to
89 documentation, or not at all. Supported options are:
90
91 :documentation - The doc-string used for this class.
92
93 Options added to EIEIO:
94
95 :allow-nil-initform - Non-nil to skip typechecking of null initforms.
96 :custom-groups - List of custom group names. Organizes slots into
97 reasonable groups for customizations.
98 :abstract - Non-nil to prevent instances of this class.
99 If a string, use as an error string if someone does
100 try to make an instance.
101 :method-invocation-order
102 - Control the method invocation order if there is
103 multiple inheritance. Valid values are:
104 :breadth-first - The default.
105 :depth-first
106
107 Options in CLOS not supported in EIEIO:
108
109 :metaclass - Class to use in place of `standard-class'
110 :default-initargs - Initargs to use when initializing new objects of
111 this class.
112
113 Due to the way class options are set up, you can add any tags you wish,
114 and reference them using the function `class-option'."
