%load-path

%load-path

[Damien Mattei]

hi,
i had :
;; set current path in load path
(set! %load-path (reverse (cons "." (reverse %load-path))))
in my .guile
in guile 2.*
and i was able to load module like that:
(not sure it is correct to do that)

(use-modules (guile/growable-vector))
and now it works with:
(use-modules (guile growable-vector))

in guile 2.* the beahvior was exactly opposite: the first example worked
not the second

did someone know if it changed? or a possible problem in my config files?

Damien

Hello Damien,

Until today I was not aware, that there is a use-modules with slash notation.

I have found, that modifying the load-path is usually not, what I want in the
end. I prefer to use the -L argument for telling Guile, which directories it
should start "looking from" when processing the list in a (use-modules ...)
expression.

Unfortunately I do not know, whether anything relating to that changed.

Best regards,
Zelphir

And /if/ changing the load path, consider using `add-to-load-path' :-)
