Modifying a buffer via a keyboard macro does not seem to run the `after-change-functions' buffer modification hook, at least not in a batch `ert' test.
To reproduce, save the code below as test.el and run it with:
emacs -Q -batch -l ert -t test.el -f ert-run-tests-batch-and-exit
;; -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
(require 'ert)
(require 'ert-x)
(ert-deftest test ()
(ert-with-test-buffer ()
(let ((acf 0))
(add-hook 'after-change-functions
(lambda (&rest _) (setq acf (1+ acf)))
nil t)
(execute-kbd-macro (kbd "x"))
(should (equal (buffer-string) "x"))
;; This check fails:
(should (equal acf 1)))))
If the `execute-kbd-macro' call is replaced with the following it *does* work as expected:
(ert-simulate-command '(self-insert-command 1 ?x))

I would expect that to be roughly equivalent to typing "x" on the physical keyboard, which would insert an event into some sort of event queue. (I'm not familiar enough with Emacs to know whether that queue is per-buffer, per-window, per-frame, per-terminal, per-process, or something else.) Under normal circumstances, the event would be dispatched to the buffer associated with the `selected-window' of the `selected-frame', and insert an "x". I think my understanding of "current buffer" is incorrect. My current mental model of `with-current-buffer' is that it behaves as if the window's associated buffer is briefly switched to the specified buffer (like "C-x b" does) except it doesn't actually go to the expense of rendering the other buffer in the window (or update the toolbar, etc.). Looking at the documentation of `set-window-buffer', that mental model appears to be wrong. But if my mental model is wrong, why does my original code insert "x" into the temporary buffer? It is not due to something specific to `ert-with-test-buffer', because if I evaluate the following in *scratch* then I see the same behavior that Lars saw with `with-temp-buffer' (the "x" is inserted into *scratch*): (ert-with-test-buffer () (execute-kbd-macro (kbd "x"))) Maybe `ert-run-tests-batch-and-exit' is setting it up to more closely simulate a user interacting with Emacs? Or maybe the behavior is caused by batch mode? Regardless, given that the temporary buffer is modified in my original example, shouldn't `after-change-functions' run?

Looking at the documentation of `set-window-buffer', that mental model appears to be wrong. Yes, with-temp-buffer doesn't associate the temporary buffer with the selected window. And execute-kbd-macro starts a command loop, which always makes sure the selected-window's buffer is current. > But if my mental model is wrong, why does my original code insert "x" into the temporary buffer?

Or maybe the behavior is caused by batch mode? Could be, you will have to investigate what ERT does in those cases.

Yes on both accounts. See updated test below. I changed the test to switch to the temporary buffer in the selected window and it now reliably inserts "x" into the temporary buffer.

I can cook up a patch. Is it really a good idea? In general, all the 'with-SOMETHING' macros are likely to inhibit modification hooks, since they erase the temporary buffers high and low. We'd need to stick these factoids in umpteen APIs, and we'll still forget some. E.g., in this case, even if temp-buffer-window-setup was documented to inhibit modification hooks. how would you know it is relevant to your case -- it is not explicitly called anywhere. I think the rule of thumb should be to assume that any temporary buffer has these kinds of hooks disabled, and if one needs them enabled, one should enable them explicitly. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 18+ messages in thread

It's really surprising that with-current-buffer-window does this -- it sounds like a general variation on with-selected-window, but it's not: It's meant to be used to pop up help buffers, and this should be documented. with-current-buffer/with-selected-window etc do not inhibit any hooks in the buffers them handle. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 18+ messages in thread

I didn't write that code, and have no sentiments for it (although I generally assume that all the temporary buffers disable such hooks for performance reasons). I just explained what Richard saw, and it took me some non-trivial time. Maybe we should modify with-current-buffer-window to not have such global effects on the body? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 18+ messages in thread

I think that would be good, but somebody should investigate why whoever added that binding in temp-buffer-window-setup did it in the first place. Perhaps there's some obscure reason why it makes sense -- it's not at all obvious to me. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 18+ messages in thread

If you add a `(should (null inhibit-modification-hooks))` just before the call to `execute-kbd-macro' it will not fail there. But that original test code is incorrect anyway (the selected window is not explicitly switched to the temporary buffer before running the keyboard macro), so it doesn't really matter to me.

It turns out that `inhibit-modification-hooks' is actually nil in the body of `with-current-buffer-window', as expected. It is t in the above test code because of `display-buffer-below-selected', which calls `window--display-buffer', which does the following: (when (functionp (cdr (assq 'body-function alist))) (let ((inhibit-read-only t) (inhibit-modification-hooks t)) (funcall (cdr (assq 'body-function alist)) window))) The `body-function' action alist entry was added in Emacs 28.1 by commit 3273e2ace78 [1] for bug#39822 [2]. Presumably the modification hooks are inhibited during the execution of `body-function' because `body-function' was added to replace the (now-deprecated) `with-displayed-buffer-window' macro, which inhibits them. The `with-displayed-buffer-window' macro has inhibited them ever since the macro was first added to Emacs 25.1 by commit f0f70ec0bc5 [3] for bug#17809 [4]. I'm guessing that `body-function' is only intended for initial buffer set-up, thus modification hooks are inhibited. However, the body of `with-current-buffer-window' is also only intended for initial buffer set-up (it actually runs before `body-function' and before the buffer is displayed), so the inconsistency is unexpected and awkward. Either both should inhibit the modification hooks, or neither should.
