Subject: doco scm_remember_upto_1
Date: Thu, 22 May 2003 09:15:53 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wugjhowm.fsf@zip.com.au> (raw)
In the "Type checking" node of the manual showing the clear_image
example smob code, should that function have an scm_remember_upto_1
just before returning, in order to keep image_smob visible to a
garbage collect that might run in another thread?
I was going to write some words about scm_remember_upto_1. I was
going to have a new "map_image" to illustrate the point, then wondered
whether clear_image ought already show it. Either that or it's an
example of when not needed.
I'm assuming since scm_remember_upto_1 is mentioned in the 1.6 NEWS
that it's a documented (or meant to be documented) feature.
