Subject: Evaluating definitions from another thread
Date: Fri, 10 May 2024 22:15:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAMFYt2aG3nYiuTtXE251QrMnjGFY_BjahTT8xsOncYf1bzzEDg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I've noticed that when I call

(future (eval '(define x 5)))

then the variable x remains unbound after the execution
- even though when I invoke (eval '(define x 5)), x gets bound to 5 as
expected.

Is there a way to have evaluated definitions introduce new bindings
regardless of the thread they're being evaluated from?
