Hello all,
I ran into an error message in Guile, and I'm not sure how to track
down the cause of it. I used a file called test.scm with the following
contents:
#!guile
!#
(define (codegen)
#`(let ((message "hello, world!\n"))
(display message)))
(define-syntax test
(lambda (x)
(syntax-case x ()
(_ (codegen)))))
(test)
Then I opened guile and did (load "test.scm"), and got this:
;;; compiling test.scm
;;; WARNING: compilation of test.scm failed:
;;; key wrong-type-arg, throw_args (#f "Wrong type to apply: ~S" (#f) (#f))
hello, world!
As far as I can tell, this means that Guile tried to compile test.scm,
failed, and then interpreted it correctly. Is that right? If so, is
there a way to get more information about where the wrong-type-arg
error was thrown?
I'd also love to know any way to get more information about errors
that happen during macroexpansion in general. I've been having quite a
bit of trouble figuring out what is going wrong at different points in
peg.scm, while I'm trying to convert it to syntax-case.
Thanks,
Noah
