HandlingDeclarations

Overview

The primary mechanism for directing the compiler is the DECLARE form. This form if present follows the binding list for a lambda, let, let*, or macro. There are a set of declarations defined for the CL standard. An implementation is allowed to extend the set for any purposes it deems. The following table shows the declarations supported by CLforJava and links to the topics that define their details and implementation.
