Subject: RE: Can't M-x compile-defun `edebug' because dynamic variables are falsely taken as lexical.
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2017 14:44:23 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7a8a35b8-e354-4bff-a514-954344bded90@default> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <jwvlguqcvs2.fsf-monnier+gmane.emacs.devel@gnu.org>

I _almost_ wanted to offer this, as a way to check dynamic vs lexical:

`symbol-value', wrapping with `condition-case', checking for
`void-variable' error and returning `nil' in that case.

But if there are a dynamic var and a lexical var with the same name,
`symbol-value' just sees the former - no real way to test the latter.
