see what lisp files are loaded?

Is there a way to get a list of all the lisp files that are loaded in
the current session of cad (not the lisp commands)? (and generate that
list in lisp?)

 

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say no. The "lisp file" is just
an instrument to hold lisp code until it's loaded into memory. You can
easily write lisp functions at the command line that will be loaded into
memory without ever loading a 'lisp file'. You can also load a 'lisp
file' that contains no lisp code. In the same regard, you can load a
file that contains lisp code but that has a non-lisp file extension, for
example, a file named "mylisp.xls".

I suppose it's possible to write some sort of reactor to catch files
that are loaded. But this itself would have to be running from the start.

I'm interested to hear other thoughts.

 

Yes. Download and install McNeel's DOSLIB for your version.
There's a (dos_lisplist) function that provides exactly what you want.

You could add a "save lisp file name" to a variable for to every lisp file
you have.

Example - "test.lsp" file
; test.lsp file
(defun C:XX () (princ "\nMy XX program"))
(defun C:YY () (princ "\nMy YY program"))
; add lisp file name to MY_LISP_FILES_LOADED variable
(if (not (member "TEST.LSP" MY_LISP_FILES_LOADED)) (setq
MY_LISP_FILES_LOADED (append MY_LISP_FILES_LOADED (list "TEST.LSP"))))
;end of test.lsp file

The you need a lisp routine to list the currently loaded lisp files.
(defun C:LIST_LISP ()
(princ "\nLisp Files Loaded - ")
(foreach FILENAME MY_LISP_FILES_LOADED (princ (strcat "\n" FILENAME)))
(princ)
)

 

There must be some way.. because if you run "appload" you can see a list of
every lisp file loaded..

it's just a question of how to access that list.
