24 ;;; Commentary:
26 ;; Backward compatibility definition of old EIEIO functions in
27 ;; terms of newer equivalent.
29 ;; The main elements are the old EIEIO `defmethod' and `defgeneric' which are
30 ;; now implemented on top of cl-generic. The differences we have to
31 ;; accommodate are:
32 ;; - EIEIO's :static methods (turned into a new `eieio--static' specializer).
33 ;; - EIEIO's support for `call-next-method' and `next-method-p' instead of
34 ;; `cl-next-method-p' and `cl-call-next-method' (simple matter of renaming).
35 ;; - Different errors are signaled.
36 ;; - EIEIO's defgeneric does not reset the function.
37 ;; - EIEIO's no-next-method and no-applicable-method can't be aliases of
38 ;; cl-generic's namesakes since they have different calling conventions,
39 ;; which means that packages that (defmethod no-next-method ..) don't work.
40 ;; - EIEIO's `call-next-method' and `next-method-p' had dynamic scope whereas
41 ;; cl-generic's `cl-next-method-p' and `cl-call-next-method' are lexically
42 ;; scoped.

80 (defmacro defmethod (method &rest args)
81 "Create a new METHOD through `defgeneric' with ARGS.
83 The optional second argument KEY is a specifier that
84 modifies how the method is called, including:
85 :before - Method will be called before the :primary
86 :primary - The default if not specified
87 :after - Method will be called after the :primary
88 :static - First arg could be an object or class
89 The next argument is the ARGLIST. The ARGLIST specifies the arguments
90 to the method as with `defun'. The first argument can have a type
91 specifier, such as:
92 ((VARNAME CLASS) ARG2 ...)
93 where VARNAME is the name of the local variable for the method being
94 created. The CLASS is a class symbol for a class made with `defclass'.
95 A DOCSTRING comes after the ARGLIST, and is optional.
96 All the rest of the args are the BODY of the method. A method will
97 return the value of the last form in the BODY.
