allocation-in-gen-num

Allocates objects from a specified generation within the scope of evaluating a number of forms in 32-bit LispWorks.

allocation-in-gen-num gen-num &body body => result

gen-num

An integer, which if out of range for a valid generation number is rounded either to the youngest or oldest generation.

If gen-num is negative, the specified generation is: the highest generation number + 1 - gen-num, so that an argument of -1 specifies the highest generation number.

body

The forms to be evaluated while the allocation generation has been temporarily set to gen-num.

result

The result of evaluating body.

Allocates objects from a specified generation during the extent of the evaluation of the body forms.

Normally objects are allocated from the first (youngest) generation, which assumes that they are short-lived. The memory allocator and garbage collector perform better if allocation of large numbers of non-ephemeral objects is done explicitly into a generation other than the youngest.
