| Summary | BODY-OF treats op! values derived from natives differently from those derived from actions |
|---|---|
| Description | Values of type op! have either a corresponding action (e.g. + and ADD) or a corresponding native (e.g. = and EQUAL?). On all values of type any-function! the reflector BODY-OF is defined. On actions this yields a number, and so it does on the corresponding op. On natives it yields NONE, but on the corresponding op, it yields the machine address of the handling routine (which is also stored with the native, of course, only never revealed). |
| Example code |
>> body-of :add == 1 ;; is in fact the ordinal in SYSTEM/CATALOG/ACTIONS >> body-of :+ == 1 >> body-of :equal? == none >> body-of := == 4336624 |

Since ops are infix trampolines, BODY-OF should return the same result as it would on the target of the redirection. That result is NONE for natives and actions. |

That result is currently NOT NONE for actions. So you are not only rectifying the result for natives, but also changing it for actions? |

The value returned from actions and ops was *not* the body, so BODY-OF now returns none. |
