<p>This SRFI lets a portable Scheme program test for the presence of
|
||
|
certain features, and adapt itself by using different blocks of code,
|
||
|
or fail if the necessary features are not available. There’s no
|
||
|
module to load, this is in the Guile core.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>A program designed only for Guile will generally not need this
|
||
|
mechanism, such a program can of course directly use the various
|
||
|
documented parts of Guile.

specification is satisfied. It is an error if no <var class="var">feature</var> is

satisfied.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>Features are symbols such as <code class="code">srfi-1</code>, and a feature

specification can use <code class="code">and</code>, <code class="code">or</code> and <code class="code">not</code> forms to

test combinations. The last clause can be an <code class="code">else</code>, to be used
|

if no other passes.
|

|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>For example, define a private version of <code class="code">alist-cons</code> if SRFI-1
|

|
is not available.

<p>Other SRFI feature symbols are defined once their code has been loaded
|
||
|
with <code class="code">use-modules</code>, since only then are their bindings available.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>The ‘<samp class="samp">--use-srfi</samp>’ command line option (see <a class="pxref" href="Invoking-Guile.html">Invoking Guile</a>) is
|
||
|
a good way to load SRFIs to satisfy <code class="code">cond-expand</code> when running a
|
||
|
portable program.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>Testing the <code class="code">guile</code> feature allows a program to adapt itself to
|
||
|
the Guile module system, but still run on other Scheme systems. For
|
||
|
example the following demands SRFI-8 (<code class="code">receive</code>), but also knows
|
||
|
how to load it with the Guile mechanism.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<div class="example">
|
||
|
<pre class="example-preformatted">(cond-expand (srfi-8
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
(guile
|
||
|
(use-modules (srfi srfi-8))))
|
||
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-guile_002d2-SRFI_002d0-feature"></a>
|
||
|
<a class="index-entry-id" id="index-portability-between-2_002e0-and-older-versions"></a>
|
||
|
<p>Likewise, testing the <code class="code">guile-2</code> feature allows code to be portable
|
||
|
between Guile 2.<var class="var">x</var> and previous versions of Guile. For instance, it
|
||
|
makes it possible to write code that accounts for Guile 2.<var class="var">x</var>’s compiler,
|
||
|
yet be correctly interpreted on 1.8 and earlier versions:
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<div class="example">
|
||
|
<pre class="example-preformatted">(cond-expand (guile-2 (eval-when (compile)
|
||
|
;; This must be evaluated at compile time.
|
||
|
(fluid-set! current-reader my-reader)))
|
||
|
(guile
|
||
|
;; Earlier versions of Guile do not have a
|
||
|
;; separate compilation phase.
|
||
|
(fluid-set! current-reader my-reader)))
|
||
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>It should be noted that <code class="code">cond-expand</code> is separate from the
|
||
|
<code class="code">*features*</code> mechanism (see <a class="pxref" href="Feature-Tracking.html">Feature Tracking</a>), feature
|
||
|
symbols in one are unrelated to those in the other.
