I just saw this
+(declare-function dos-8+3-filename "../dos-fns.el" (filename))
and realized that we never discussed precisely what these file name
arguments would mean. In particular we never discussed how directories
would be handled.
Since Lisp library names must be unique even between directories, I
think that we should not include directory names in this argument.
check-declare should ignore any directory name if specified.

I was thinking of having, for example, elisp code installed in ~/elisp, which would use `declare-function' to silence warnings about functions from Emacs packages. To be able to use `check-declare', the `declare-function's in my private code would have to hardcode the path to the Emacs lisp/ directory. All that is moot now that `check-declare-locate' exists.

It should probably just be using locate-library/load-path, which was something Dan had already suggested to me. External packages could set load-path as needed before using it. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
