Hi,
Thanks for all the messages replying and discussing my previous question
about p-lists. I've worked hard on it, and my p-lists work fine.
But I've another problem : i need to have a symbol contained in another
symbol's p-list. I've managed to do this using a simple setf, but the
resulting "symbol-preperty" is in fact the same symbol as the one i
created before putting it into the p-list.
Here's an exemple (preferable to my awful english ;-) :
(intern "X" "USER")
(setf (get 'X 'type) 'list)
(setf (get 'X 'name) "V1")
(setf (get 'X 'value) '(1 2 3))
(intern "Y" "USER")
; now, i want X to be a "property" of Y
(setf (get 'Y 'Test) 'X)
; and i'd like to be able to modify X without altering the property X of
Y, e.g. :
(setf (get 'X 'name) "V2")
(symbol-plist (get 'Y 'Test))
; returns : (VALUE (1 2 3) NAME "V2" TYPE LIST)
; i'd like : (VALUE (1 2 3) NAME "V1" TYPE LIST)
Two Questions :
1) Is it possible ?
2) HOW !?
Thanks in advance for any answer.
