*autoload-search-list*

The value of this variable is a search list used when an autoload is triggered. Autoloads are triggered by actions such as calling certain Allegro CL functions whose functionality is not yet loaded into the system. The fasl file containing the functionality is loaded (usually with require and usually from the bundle) and computation continues, for the most part invisibly to the user.

See Search lists in loading.htm for a description of the search list algorithm and structure.

See loading.htm for general information on loading and search lists in Allegro CL.
