From: Philipp Stephani <p.stephani2 <at> gmail.com> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 28.0.50; cl-defgeneric with :method generates incorrect Edebug symbols Date: Sun, 02 Aug 2020 13:14:13 +0200
Create a file /tmp/defmethod.el:
$ cat /tmp/defmethod.el
(cl-defgeneric foo (_)
(:method ((_ number)) 1))
Visit the file in Emacs:
$ emacs -Q /tmp/defmethod.el
Instrument the `cl-defgeneric' form using C-u C-M-x. The *Messages*
buffer now contains
Edebug: nil ((_ number))
Edebug: foo
The second line is for the generic function itself. The first line,
however, is for the method defined by the `:method' form. But its name
should be `foo ((_ number))', not `nil ((_ number))'. This becomes a
problem if there are multiple such generic functions with different
names but identical signatures, because Edebug will then generate
duplicate symbols. This breaks e.g. coverage instrumentation because
the instrumented frequencies will be attached to the wrong symbol.
Implementation-wise, I guess this is a problem with
`edebug-match-cl-generic-method-args'. That function contains the
snippet
;; Append the arguments to edebug-def-name.
(setq edebug-def-name
(intern (format "%s %s" edebug-def-name args)))
However, `edebug-def-name' is only non-nil when using `cl-defmethod',
not when using `cl-defgeneric' with `:method'.
