Hi,
I recently had to use `called-interactively-p-functions' to fix a
command similar to `repeat-complex-command'.
I used similar hack than the one found in `repeat-complex-command',
but as mentionned in `called-interactively-p' this is not working with
code compiled (I use lexical-binding), thus `dont-compile' have been
made obsolete.
So what to do actually to fix such issues ?
Do you plan to make something better around the terrible
`called-interactively-p' ?
What about a special var to force `called-interactively-p' to return
true when it find this var (Actually this is crashing emacs) ?
It seems the only reason `dont-compile' have been made obsolete is
to force people fixing their code to make it working compiled;
That's ok, but what to do when nothing else is possible ?
IOW why is this obsolete ?

FWIW (I think this is related; apologies if not), this is what
I did:
;; Same as `repeat-complex-command--called-interactively-skip'
;; in `simple.el', but tests for `icicle-repeat-complex-command',
;; not `repeat-complex-command'.
(when (> emacs-major-version 23)
(defun icicle-repeat-complex-command--called-interactively-skip
(i _frame1 frame2)
"If currently `icicle-repeat-complex-command', return 1 to skip over it."
(and (eq 'eval (cadr frame2))
(eq 'icicle-repeat-complex-command
(cadr (backtrace-frame i #'called-interactively-p)))
1))
(byte-compile 'icicle-repeat-complex-command))
The reason for the `byte-compile' is that I found that it does
not work when interpreted. (That seems opposite to what you are
saying (?). I do not have non-nil `lexical-binding', however.)
I agree that this all seems complicated & fragile. Dunno what
the solution is.

Useful for packages like Icicles and Helm would be a build in
(defun fake-interactive-call (command &rest args) ...)
factored out of what is now hidden inside `repeat-complex-command'.

I don't know which "mention" you're thinking of here.
`called-interactively-p' is supposed to work (more or less as
well/poorly) in compiled code.
> thus `dont-compile' have been made obsolete.
It's not related.
> So what to do actually to fix such issues ?
Use an additional argument (you can call it `interactive'), provided by
the `interactive' spec?
> Do you plan to make something better around the terrible
> `called-interactively-p' ?
We have that already: the extra arg, as suggested in C-h
f called-interactively-p.
> It seems the only reason `dont-compile' have been made obsolete is
> to force people fixing their code to make it working compiled;
It's obsolete for the following reasons:
- I don't know of any use for it.
- I haven't seen a use of it yet.
- It seems to only make sense for ugly hacks.
> That's ok, but what to do when nothing else is possible ?
AFAIK something else is always possible and preferable. But I don't
know enough about your problem to know that it's indeed also the case in
your situation.

Sure, we already do that. But that doesn't help when you define
a "command similar to `repeat-complex-command'", as Thierry says,
and as I have done too. Such a command has little control over
the definition of the command that it invokes.

I thought he described it pretty well. Write a command that is
similar to `repeat-complex-command'. Now make it work-around Emacs
bug #14136.
You end up doing for your new command something like what Emacs
does for `repeat-complex-command'. And AFAICT, that works only
when the helper function (similar to vanilla Emacs function
`repeat-complex-command--called-interactively-skip') is
byte-compiled.

Yes. Or even a standard helper command, a la
`repeat-complex-command--called-interactively-skip', which
provides a way (e.g. a variable) to specify the replacement for `repeat-complex-command'.
IOW, it's a bit silly for libraries to essentially duplicate the
ugly hack used in `repeat-complex-command', specifying their own
command in place of it.
If this hack is the best Emacs can do then we should do it just
once and let other commands that are similar to
`repeat-complex-command' make use of it without just duplicating it.

Ah, now I understand the "byte-compiled" part (I kept thinking it was
about whether the command (i.e. callee) is byte-compiled).

Yes, that makes a lot of sense now.
Before we go about doing that, I'd want to know one more thing: how did
icicles and helm does with it, in previous versions of Emacs?

Icicles did nothing - the bug existed, just as in vanilla Emacs.

It was the same with helm.

In which sense did it exist in vanilla Emacs?

IOW, this is a long standing problem, for which
called-interactively-p-functions provides a limited workaround?

(eval (count-words nil nil))
=> eval: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil
We were using a condition-case returning an error message in such cases.
See

Yes, seems fragile too.
Another approch would be to allow more args to `call-interactively',
this would allow one to use:
(apply 'call-interactively '(sexp arg1 arg2 arg...))
But not sure this would cover all use cases.

Right, I'm thinking of introducing a new `funcall-interactively' which
is just like `funcall' except that the called function will see its
`called-interactively-p' returning non-nil.
But I think this will have to wait for 24.5.

Not sure I understand how any of this will help the use cases we
mentioned. Is the idea that `repeat-complex-command' will, instead
of doing (eval newcmd), do something like this?
(eval `(funcall-interactively ,(car newcmd) ,@(cdr newcmd)))
For the case in bug #14136, where NEWCMD is (count-words nil nil),
this would mean (funcall-interactively 'count-words nil nil).
(Maybe an `apply-interactively' would be handier here?)
In any case, I will wait to see how this changes the
`repeat-complex-command' code and then do likewise for my code,
which is similar.

However:

Is this needed ?
Looks like
(apply #'funcall-interactively (car newcmd) (cdr newcmd))
is enough no ?

This won't work IMO, why fun would be a cons or a byte-code-function ?

No, `newcmd' is an expression, so (cdr newcommand) contains arguments
that need to be evaluated. In some/many cases this evaluation is
trivial (the args are self-quoting, like nil or integers), but sometimes
the args can be things like (region-beginning).

These are the only interesting cases. The other cases (subrp and
symbolp, AFAICT) are trivial.

I tried to make it work:
(defun funcall-interactively (fun &rest args)
(setq fun (indirect-function fun))
(call-interactively
(cond
((consp fun)
(mapcar (lambda (x)

(aref fun 2)
(aref fun 3)

Works at least with the count-words case:
(funcall-interactively 'count-words nil nil) ==> something useful

Hmm, not sure of this, at least for `repeat-complex-command' something
like (region-beginning) is already evaluated and recorded as an integer
no ?
Oh! ok I see, something like M-: (region-beginning)
will be recorded as something like
(pp-eval-expression (quote (region-beginning)))

I still don't understand how this would be able to call interactively
something like:
(count-words-region 234 567 nil)

Great, works also with `count-words-region'.

Probably I will inline the funcall-interactively version Stefan and
Michael sent and use something like this in helm:
(defun helm-sexp-eval (cand)
(let ((sexp (read cand)))
(condition-case err
(apply #'funcall-interactively (car sexp)
(mapcar (lambda (e) (eval e t)) (cdr sexp)))
(error (message "Evaluating gave an error: %S" err)
nil))))
Probably you can do something similar in icicles.

So maybe the good old and simple (interactive-p) needs no longer being obsolete?

The code I showed takes an interactive function with some args, rips the
function apart to rebuild a new one whose interactive spec just returns
those args.
If the function is a symbol, then recurse on (symbol-function fun).

Unrelated. It's obsolete because it's replaced by called-interactively-p.
The discussion here applies just as much about interactive-p as about
called-interactively-p.
And using/introducing funcall-interactively doesn't solve all the other
problems with interactive-p/called-interactively-p, such as the fact
that they may (depending on the position of the sun) return nil rather
than t if called within an `unwind-protect'.

Yes, it's a funny idea.
Stefan, what's the right approach to make commands that refer to
this-command or last-command work correctly when called with your code?
Should we add something like
(when (symbolp fun) (setq this-command fun)) ?
Does your patch planned for later inclusion care about updating
this-command and last-command appropriately?
Thanks,
Michael.

I got it now, thanks for explanations and your work on this.

call-interactively doesn't set `this-command'. Nor does
`repeat-complex-command'. Should one of them set it?
Example:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defvar the-string nil)
(defun test (string)
(interactive (list (if (eq this-command last-command)
the-string
(setq the-string (read-string "Enter string: ")))))
(message (concat "You "
(if (eq this-command last-command) "had" "have")
" entered "
the-string)))
(global-set-key [f12] #'test)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
If you repeat `test' via repeat-complex-command and hit f12 after that,
it doesn't behave as expected (i.e., message "You had entered ...").
Should it?
Michael.

`this/last-command' are not directly related to call-interactively.
Instead they're handled by the top-level command loop.

No.

Hi,
my last question was: should `repeat-complex-command' set
`this-command'? See my example. If the answer is "yes" - shall I
create a separate bug report?
Thanks,
Michael.

It probably should, yes. Just like execute-extended-command does.
