project-package-name

Arguments: project

The default method for this generic function returns a keyword symbol naming the default package that is used for source code that is auto-generated for the forms of a project. This package is used for all forms whose form-package-name is nil, as it is by default; in other words, it is used for all forms that do not explicitly override this project-wide default. The value of this property for the current project is displayed on the Options tab of the Project Manager dialog. The setf of this function may be called to change the default package of the project.

The package must exist before setf'ing this value. The package is created automatically if needed when you enter a project package name on the Options tab of the Project Manager dialog. The next File | Save All command will then save the .lpr project definition file to contain a minimal defpackage form for the package to allow the .lpr file to load without error and to allow all of the project's source code files to be "in" the project's package, including any project file where you may have specified a more complete defpackage form.

See form-package-name for details on when and how the package is used. See also project-package.

In releases prior to 7.0, the symbol naming this operator was in the common-graphics package.
