3.1.2.1.2.2 Macro Forms</H2> <P>
If the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_o.htm#operator"><I>operator</I></A> names a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro"><I>macro</I></A>, its associated <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro_function"><I>macro function</I></A> is applied to the entire <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> and the result of that application is used in place of the original <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A>. <P>
Specifically, a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#symbol"><I>symbol</I></A> names a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro"><I>macro</I></A> in a given <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_l.htm#lexical_environment"><I>lexical environment</I></A> if <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_macro_.htm#macro-function"><B>macro-function</B></A> is <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#true"><I>true</I></A> of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#symbol"><I>symbol</I></A> and that <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#environment"><I>environment</I></A>. The <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#function"><I>function</I></A> returned by <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_macro_.htm#macro-function"><B>macro-function</B></A> is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#function"><I>function</I></A> of two arguments, called the expansion function. The expansion function is invoked by calling the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macroexpand_hook"><I>macroexpand hook</I></A> with the expansion function as its first argument, the entire <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro_form"><I>macro form</I></A> as its second argument, and an <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#environment_object"><I>environment object</I></A> (corresponding to the current <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_l.htm#lexical_environment"><I>lexical environment</I></A>) as its third argument. The <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macroexpand_hook"><I>macroexpand hook</I></A>, in turn, calls the expansion function with the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> as its first argument and the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#environment"><I>environment</I></A> as its second argument. The <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_v.htm#value"><I>value</I></A> of the expansion function, which is passed through by the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macroexpand_hook"><I>macroexpand hook</I></A>, is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A>. The returned <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> is <I>evaluated</I> in place of the original <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A>. <P>
The consequences are undefined if a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro_function"><I>macro function</I></A> destructively modifies any part of its <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> argument. <P>
A <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro_name"><I>macro name</I></A> is not a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#function_designator"><I>function designator</I></A>, and cannot be used as the <I>function</I> argument to <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#function"><I>functions</I></A> such as <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_apply.htm#apply"><B>apply</B></A>, <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_funcal.htm#funcall"><B>funcall</B></A>, or <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_map.htm#map"><B>map</B></A>. <P>
An <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_i.htm#implementation"><I>implementation</I></A> is free to implement a Common Lisp <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#special_operator"><I>special operator</I></A> as a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro"><I>macro</I></A>. An <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_i.htm#implementation"><I>implementation</I></A> is free to implement any <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro"><I>macro</I></A> <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_o.htm#operator"><I>operator</I></A> as a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#special_operator"><I>special operator</I></A>, but only if an equivalent definition of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro"><I>macro</I></A> is also provided. <P>
The next figure lists some <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#defined_name"><I>defined names</I></A> that are applicable to <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro"><I>macros</I></A>. <P>
