Syntax

Macro: use-foreign-library name

Arguments and values

name

A library designator; unevaluated.

Description

See load-foreign-library, for the meaning of “library designator”. This is intended to be the top-level form used idiomatically after a define-foreign-library form to go ahead and load the library. Finally, on implementations where the regular evaluation rule is insufficient for foreign library loading, it loads it at the required time.¹⁵

Examples
