## *compiler-not-available-warning*

The effect of this variable depends on whether or not the image being run is a standard runtime image (with `:runtime-standard` on the `*features*` list).

### Behavior when image is not a standard runtime image

If the value of this variable is true and the running Lisp image does not include the compiler, a warning will be printed whenever compile is called stating that the compiler is not available. If the value of this variable is `nil`, no warning will be printed.

### Behavior in standard runtime images

A standard runtime image is built by generate-application or build-lisp-image with the runtime keyword argument specified `:standard`. (That is the default value for the argument when generate-application is called.) Such images have `:runtime-standard` on the `*features*` list. See runtime.htm.

In standard runtime images, it is an error to call compile or compile-file directly or indirectly. The value of this variable is ignored and thus does not affect whether or not an error is signaled. The condition signaled is `runtime-restriction`.

See compiling.htm for information on the compiler.
