Article contents:== Outdated egg! This is an egg for CHICKEN 4, the unsupported old release. You're almost certainly looking for [[/eggref/5/record-variants|the CHICKEN 5 version of this egg]], if it exists. If it does not exist, there may be equivalent functionality provided by another egg; have a look at the [[https://wiki.call-cc.org/chicken-projects/egg-index-5.html|egg index]]. Otherwise, please consider porting this egg to the current version of CHICKEN. [[toc:]] == record-variants '''record-variants''' defines optimized variants on existing records defined with {{define-record}}, and on SRFI 9 records defined with {{define-record-type}}. You may also create new record types if desired. === Interface ==== define-record-variant <macro>(define-record-variant name-spec variant-spec slot1 slot2 ...)</macro> where: name-spec := (variant-name original-name) | variant-name variant-spec := (variant-type ...) variant-type := unsafe | unchecked | inline Defines alternate accessor procedures to the existing record {{original-name}} according to {{variant-spec}}. The accessors will be defined using {{variant-name}}, as if {{(define-record variant-name slot1 slot2 ...)}} had been invoked, but they will operate on records of type {{original-name}}. Variant type may be one of: * {{inline}}, so procedure definitions use {{define-inline}}; * {{unchecked}}, so accessors do not check the record type; * {{unsafe}}, so accessors use {{##sys#slot}} and {{##sys#setslot}} instead of the safe {{block-ref!}} and {{block-set!}} and any combination of {{variant-type}} is allowed in {{variant-spec}}. A constructor, {{make-VARIANT-NAME}}, is defined to create a record of the original type. If you are defining a variant on an existing record, this is here essentially for completeness, as {{unsafe}} and {{unchecked}} don't have any effect on the constructor -- though {{inline}} will inline it. Additionally, one new procedure over {{define-record}} is created: {{(check-VARIANT-NAME x)}}: Checks that {{x}} is of the corresponding record type and returns {{x}} if so; otherwise throws an error. When compiled in unsafe mode no check is performed, regardless of {{variant-type}}. {{unsafe}} and {{unchecked}} accessors are dangerous and should only be used internally in a module. Only use these when you are absolutely sure the object is of the correct type; it is ''highly'' recommended to use {{(check-VARIANT-NAME x)}} or call an original accessor before using these, after which the correct type is guaranteed. (Assuming no side effects anywhere else!) Note that {{(define-record-variant foo () x y)}} is equivalent to {{(define-record foo x y)}} except that a {{check-foo}} procedure will be generated. ==== define-record-type-variant <macro>(define-record-type-variant name-spec variant-spec pred-spec constructor field-spec)</macro> where: name-spec := (variant-name original-name) | variant-name variant-spec := (variant-type ...) variant-type := unsafe | unchecked | inline pred-spec := (predicate checker) | (predicate) | predicate constructor, field-spec: as in SRFI 9 Defines alternate accessor procedures to the existing SRFI 9 record-type {{original-name}} according to {{variant-spec}}. {{name-spec}} acts as it does in {{define-record-variant}}, including constructor generation behavior. {{pred-spec}} may be a predicate identifier or a list containing a predicate identifier and optionally a "checker" identifier. The checker identifier is used as the name of the generated {{check-VARIANT-NAME}} procedure, which again behaves as in {{define-record-variant}}. If the checker identifier is omitted, no check procedure is generated. See {{define-record-variant}} and SRFI 9 for further details. === Examples Create a variant on an existing record {{node}} and a new record type {{%lru-cache}}. Use e.g. {{(%lru-cache lru-cache)}} as {{name-spec}} to create a variant on the existing record {{lru-cache}}. (define-record node prev next key value) (define-record-variant (%node node) (unsafe unchecked inline) prev next key value) (define-record-type-variant %lru-cache (unsafe unchecked inline) (%make-lru-cache ht head tail) (%lru-cache? %check-lru-cache) (ht %lru-cache-ht) (head %lru-cache-head %lru-cache-head-set!) (tail %lru-cache-tail %lru-cache-tail-set!)) (define-inline (lookup c k) (hash-table-ref/default (%lru-cache-ht (%check-lru-cache c)) k #f)) (define (lru-cache-ref c k) (and-let* ((n (lookup c k))) ; c now guaranteed to be valid (check-%node n) ; n now guaranteed to be valid (if (not (%node-prev n)) ; MRU (%node-value n) (let ((nx (%node-next n)) (pr (%node-prev n))) (when pr (check-%node pr) ; pr now valid (%node-next-set! pr nx) (%node-prev-set! n #f) (when (eq? n (%lru-cache-tail c)) (%lru-cache-tail-set! c pr))) (when nx (check-%node nx) ; nx now valid (%node-prev-set! nx pr)) (let ((head (%lru-cache-head c))) (check-%node head) ; head now valid (%node-prev-set! head n) (%node-next-set! n head) (%lru-cache-head-set! c n) (%node-value n)) )))) === Author Jim Ursetto === Version history * 0.5 (2009-03-22): Inital release === Acknowledgements Inspiration was taken from Kon Lovett's {{misc-extn-record}}. === License Copyright (c) 2009 Jim Ursetto.
