| Allegro CL version 8.2 Unrevised from 8.1 to 8.2. 8.1 version |
Arguments: app
The form (standalone-application (app *system*))
returns true if the Lisp that is running is a standalone application
that was generated from an IDE project using the File | Build Project
Distribution menu command or the File |
Build Project Exe menu command. Otherwise nil
is returned.
If you instead generate a standalone Common Graphics app with a direct call to generate-application, then you could set this yourself if desired in the startup code of the application by calling (setf standalone-application). This should be done after calling initialize-cg but before calling event-loop.
The value is used internally to determine what happens when an error
is signaled and is not handled by application code. If set to
:debuggable
, then event-loop will use an error
handler that shows a break in the console window; this will be the
value in a standalone application that was generated with
:allow-runtime-debug
in the build-flags of the
project (reflected by the "Enable Debugging of Runtime Errors"
check-box on the Project Manager
Dialog Build tab). For any other
non-nil
value, event-loop will use an error
handler that displays a basic end-user dialog about an unhandled error
and then exits. When nil
, then no error
handler is added by event-loop; this is the case in the
IDE, where the IDE's own error handler will show the Restarts Dialog.
An application could use this value to behave differently when it is being run as a standalone application than when it is run as a project in the IDE.
