[CEDET-devel] eieio-instance-tracker bug ?

[drkm <dar...@ya...>]

  Hi

  Following is the definition of the `initialize-instance()' for class
`eieio-instance-tracker' :

    (defmethod initialize-instance :AFTER
        ((this eieio-instance-tracker) &rest fields)
      ;; Theoretically, this is never called twice for a given
      ;; instance.
      (let ((sym (oref this tracking-symbol)))
        (if (not (member this (symbol-value sym)))
	    (set sym (append (symbol-value sym) (list this))))))

  Why does it use `member()', and doesn't use `memq()' instead.  It
have to check if an identical (i.e. an `eq'ualy) object is found in
the list, not to look for an `equal' object.  We can legally have two
different objects of the same type, with the same name, and with all
slots `equal', can't we ?
