Subject: unload-feature and defcustom.
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2005 15:51:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ll71y9le.fsf@xs4all.nl> (raw)
unload-feature does not completely reverse the effects of defcustom.
Consider this file:
,----[ a.el ]
| (defcustom a-cus-var 'a-value
| "The documentation of `a-cus-var'.")
| (provide 'a)
`----
and do:
(require 'a)
(unload-feature 'a)
Now a-cus-var is not bound, but when I do M-x customize-option, I can
still select (with completion) a-cus-var and that gives me this
customization buffer:
,----[ *Customize Option: A Cus Var* ]
| This is a customization buffer.
| `Raised' buttons show active fields; type RET or click mouse-1
| on an active field to invoke its action. Editing an option value
| changes only the text in the buffer. Invoke the State button to set or
| save the option value. Saving an option normally edits your init file.
| Invoke Custom file for information on how to save in a different file.
| Invoke Help for general information.
|
| Operate on everything in this buffer:
| Set for Current Session Save for Future Sessions
| Reset Reset to Saved Erase Customization Finish
|
| A Cus Var: Hide Value "nil"
| State: CHANGED outside Customize; operating on it here may be unreliable.
|
| The documentation of `a-cus-var'.
| Parent groups: Nil
`----
I think this is undesirable. Could this be easily fixed? (Maybe by
letting customize ignore unbound vars.) Or is better to put this on
the post-release todo list?
Lute.
