3.2.3.1 Processing of Top Level Forms</H2> <P>
Processing of <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level forms</I></A> in the file compiler is defined as follows: <P>
<P><OL> <LI> If the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#compiler_macro_form"><I>compiler macro form</I></A> (not disabled by a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="d_inline.htm#notinline"><B>notinline</B></A> <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_d.htm#declaration"><I>declaration</I></A>), the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_i.htm#implementation"><I>implementation</I></A> might or might not choose to compute the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#compiler_macro_expansion"><I>compiler macro expansion</I></A> of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> and, having performed the expansion, might or might not choose to process the result as a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level form</I></A> in the same processing mode (compile-time-too or not-compile-time). If it declines to obtain or use the expansion, it must process the original <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A>. <P>
<LI> If the form is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro_form"><I>macro form</I></A>, its <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_m.htm#macro_expansion"><I>macro expansion</I></A> is computed and processed as a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level form</I></A> in the same processing mode (compile-time-too or not-compile-time). <P>
<LI> If the form is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_progn.htm#progn"><B>progn</B></A> form, each of its body <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>forms</I></A> is sequentially processed as a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level form</I></A> in the same processing mode. <P>
<LI> If the form is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_locall.htm#locally"><B>locally</B></A>, <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_flet_.htm#macrolet"><B>macrolet</B></A>, or <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_symbol.htm#symbol-macrolet"><B>symbol-macrolet</B></A>, <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_cmp_fi.htm#compile-file"><B>compile-file</B></A> establishes the appropriate bindings and processes the body forms as <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level forms</I></A> with those bindings in effect in the same processing mode. (Note that this implies that the lexical <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#environment"><I>environment</I></A> in which <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level forms</I></A> are processed is not necessarily the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_n.htm#null_lexical_environment"><I>null lexical environment</I></A>.) <P>
<LI> If the form is an <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_eval_w.htm#eval-when"><B>eval-when</B></A> form, it is handled according to the next figure. <P>

<P><B>Figure 3-7. EVAL-WHEN processing</B> <P>
Column <B>CT</B> indicates whether <TT>:compile-toplevel</TT> is specified. Column <B>LT</B> indicates whether <TT>:load-toplevel</TT> is specified. Column <B>E</B> indicates whether <TT>:execute</TT> is specified. Column <B>Mode</B> indicates the processing mode; a dash (---) indicates that the processing mode is not relevant. <P>
The <B>Action</B> column specifies one of three actions: <P>
<P><DL><P>
<DT> <B>Process:</B> process the body as <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level forms</I></A> in the specified mode. <P><DD>
<DT> <B>Evaluate:</B> evaluate the body in the dynamic execution context of the compiler, using the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#evaluation_environment"><I>evaluation environment</I></A> as the global environment and the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_l.htm#lexical_environment"><I>lexical environment</I></A> in which the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_eval_w.htm#eval-when"><B>eval-when</B></A> appears. <P><DD>
<DT> <B>Discard:</B> ignore the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A>. <P><DD></DL><P>
The <B>New Mode</B> column indicates the new processing mode. A dash (---) indicates the compiler remains in its current mode. <P>
<LI> Otherwise, the form is a <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level form</I></A> that is not one of the special cases. In compile-time-too mode, the compiler first evaluates the form in the evaluation <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_e.htm#environment"><I>environment</I></A> and then minimally compiles it. In not-compile-time mode, the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A> is simply minimally compiled. All <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#subform"><I>subforms</I></A> are treated as <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_n.htm#non-top-level_form"><I>non-top-level forms</I></A>. <P>
Note that <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level forms</I></A> are processed in the order in which they textually appear in the file and that each <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level form</I></A> read by the compiler is processed before the next is read. However, the order of processing (including macro expansion) of <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_s.htm#subform"><I>subforms</I></A> that are not <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_t.htm#top_level_form"><I>top level forms</I></A> and the order of further compilation is unspecified as long as Common Lisp semantics are preserved. <P>
<P></OL><P>
<A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_eval_w.htm#eval-when"><B>eval-when</B></A> forms cause compile-time evaluation only at top level. Both <TT>:compile-toplevel</TT> and <TT>:load-toplevel</TT> situation specifications are ignored for <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_n.htm#non-top-level_form"><I>non-top-level forms</I></A>. For <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_n.htm#non-top-level_form"><I>non-top-level forms</I></A>, an <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_eval_w.htm#eval-when"><B>eval-when</B></A> specifying the <TT>:execute</TT> situation is treated as an <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_i.htm#implicit_progn"><I>implicit progn</I></A> including the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>forms</I></A> in the body of the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="s_eval_w.htm#eval-when"><B>eval-when</B></A> <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>form</I></A>; otherwise, the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_f.htm#form"><I>forms</I></A> in the body are ignored. <P>
