discard-local-name-info

$Revision: 5.0.2.4 $

Function

Package: EXCL

Arguments: (&optional scopes-only)

Functions compiled with the compiler switches comp:save-local-names-switch and/or comp:save-local-scopes-switch true will store additional information to assist debugging. Calling this function will cause that information to be discarded allowing you to dump a smaller image with excl:dumplisp. When scopes-only is nil (the default), this function will discard all name and scope information in the current image. When scopes-only is true, scope information is discarded but name information is kept. After calling this function, debugging becomes harder (of course) so this function is typically called just before calling excl:dumplisp, after you have finished debugging.
