#### 6.12`` Transformer Helpers

( require racket/unit-exptime )

The racket/unit-exptime library provides procedures that are intended for use by macro transformers. In particular, the library is typically imported using for-syntax into a module that defines macro with define-syntax.

( list/c ( cons/c ( or/c symbol? #f)
identifier? ))

unit-identifier : identifier?
err-syntax : syntax?

If unit-identifier is bound to static unit information via define-unit (or other such forms), the result is two values. The first value is for the unit’s imports, and the second is for the unit’s exports. Each result value is a list, where each list element pairs a symbol or #f with an identifier. The symbol or #f indicates the import’s or export’s tag (where #f indicates no tag), and the identifier indicates the binding of the corresponding signature.

If unit-identifier is not bound to static unit information, then the exn:fail:syntax exception is raised. In that case, the given err-syntax argument is used as the source of the error, where unit-identifer is used as the detail source location.

sig-identifier : identifier?
err-syntax : syntax?

If sig-identifier is bound to static unit information via define-signature (or other such forms), the result is four values:

- an identifier or #f indicating the signature (of any) that is extended by the sig-identifier binding;

- a list of identifiers representing the variables supplied/required by the signature;

- a list of identifiers for variable definitions in the signature (i.e., variable bindings that are provided on import, but not defined by units that implement the signature); and

- a list of identifiers with syntax definitions in the signature.

If sig-identifier is not bound to a signature, then the exn:fail:syntax exception is raised. In that case, the given err-syntax argument is used as the source of the error, where sig-identifier is used as the detail source location.
