Subject: Incompatible change of update-file-autoloads function
Date: Sun, 04 Oct 2020 23:18:11 +0900 (JST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201004.231811.1933338792984225812.yasu@utahime.org> (raw)
Hello,
I updated emacs to current HEAD of master branch and found build of a
certain 3rd party application fails with following code.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(defun lookup-autoload ()
(require 'autoload)
(setq generated-autoload-file
(expand-file-name "lookup-autoloads.el" default-directory)
backup-enable-predicate 'ignore)
(mapc (lambda (file)
(update-file-autoloads file t))
command-line-args-left))
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I did bisect test and found the error happens after following commit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
commit 6f36b67e4146ef4610916b7903fd292e1308daf5

Stop using a dynamically bound 'generated-autoload-file' variable
* doc/lispref/loading.texi (Autoload): Document change of name
(bug#39823).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/autoload.el (autoload-find-generated-file): Pass
the file name in.
(autoload-generated-file): Ditto.
(autoload-file-load-name): Ditto.
(generate-file-autoloads): Ditto.
(autoload--setup-output): Ditto.
(autoload-generate-file-autoloads): Ditto, and alter doc string to
reflect when `generated-autoload-file' is heeded.
(update-file-autoloads): Pass outfile in to functions.
(autoload-find-destination): Ditto.
(update-directory-autoloads): Make into an obsolete shim around
`make-directory-autoloads'.
(make-directory-autoloads): Renamed from
`update-directory-autoloads' with new semantics.
(batch-update-autoloads): Adjust caller.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/package.el (package-generate-autoloads): Adjust
caller.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
According to commit message update-file-autoloads function seems to
change incompatibly.
Then is there any way to make above lookup-autoload function work fine
with both before and after this commit?
Best Regards.
