Find a Function

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Is it possible to find which loaded LISP file has a function in it? I have some programs that are calling a specific function but I'm not finding which lisp file has the function that is being called.

It sounds you are not really searching for a programming solution, and the challenge is not to find the right function
of many function with the same name. So why you not use the windows explorer for searching the file content of all files?

I did actually try that, but we have multiple bundles loaded, and I was not able to find it which is why I was wondering if there was a way to find which one has it besides windows search. I think I'll try a more general search on my PC and see if anything comes up elsewhere.

"multiple bundles"
Bundles? Thats sounds you get an installer, you don't set up the load process
and you don't know where are the files?

Why are you sure that are Lisps?

Start Appload, there you can see from where are the files loaded.

Not enough informations for me to help in direct way.

There are programs such as "File Seek" that can scan inside files.
That is, if the files are not encrypted.

Unfortunately File Seek is no longer free (but has a trial period).

ZTREE!!  I can't live without it.  And it's cheap at $29.95.

I ended up finding the function that I was looking for by going to the Load Application and going through the loaded files and discovered there was 1 that sounded like it may have what I was looking for and it did end up with it. Windows Search never found it even though I had it marked to search file contents. Thanks everyone for the help.

That's good to hear, but you should get ZTree for the future.
