([[option]]) {form}*

option::= :override override

forms - an implicit progn.

results - the values returned by the forms.

The set of options permitted may be extended by the implementation, but the only standardized keyword is :override.

If nested dynamically only the outer call to with-compilation-unit has any effect unless the value associated with :override is true, in which case warnings are deferred only to the end of the innermost call for which override is true.

The function compile-file provides the effect of

 (with-compilation-unit (:override nil) ...)

Any implementation-dependent extensions can only be provided as the result of an explicit programmer request by use of an implementation-dependent keyword. Implementations are forbidden from attaching additional meaning to a use of this macro which involves either no keywords or just the keyword :override.

 (defun compile-files (&rest files)
   (with-compilation-unit ()
     (mapcar #'(lambda (file) (compile-file file)) files)))

 (compile-files "A" "B" "C")

Note however that if the implementation does not normally defer any warnings, use of with-compilation-unit might not have any effect.
