Subject: Basic question about autoload function
Date: Wed, 06 Dec 2017 18:55:32 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAFyQvY2a3BOdgTAZz3apuRv3srqmdvsKmGLuom=STHM0ZOgjFw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I have recently realized that
(autoload #'foo-fn "bar-pkg")
works even if foo-fn is *not* defined inside bar-pkg. The documentation
also doesn't say that it has to be that way.
So I was just pleasantly surprised that that did the right thing. I looked
at src/eval.c to confirm if that was the case (that it didn't matter if
foo-fn was or wasn't inside bar-pkg).. but I don't understand what's going
on in there (don't understand C).
Can someone confirm?
