Bug description
When a function is called during rx macro expansion the function is reported as void.
For example, when using a a sample codefrom Info node (elisp) Extending Rx:
(defun n-tuple-rx (n element)
`(seq "<"
(group-n 1 ,element)
,@(mapcar (lambda (i) `(seq ?, (group-n ,i ,element)))
(number-sequence 2 n))
">"))
(rx-define n-tuple (n element) (eval (n-tuple-rx n 'element)))
(rx (n-tuple 3 (+ (in "0-9"))))flycheck reports the following error in *Flycheck errors* buffer:
Symbol's function definition is void: n-tuple-rx
Steps to reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Start
emacs -Q - Evaluate the following:
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "https://melpa.org/packages/"))
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'flycheck)- Find a new file, for example
/tmp/foo.el - Enable
flycheck-mode - Paste the following:
;; -*- lexical-binding: t -*-
(defun n-tuple-rx (n element)
`(seq "<"
(group-n 1 ,element)
,@(mapcar (lambda (i) `(seq ?, (group-n ,i ,element)))
(number-sequence 2 n))
">"))
(rx-define n-tuple (n element) (eval (n-tuple-rx n 'element)))
(rx (n-tuple 3 (+ (in "0-9"))))- See error in
*Flychek errors*buffer - Call
M-x elisp-byte-compile-file-> no error is reported.
[x] I have read https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/28429/how-do-i-troubleshoot-emacs-problems## Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
flycheck should not report errors when calling functions inside rx macro.

System configuration
Syntax checkers for buffer foo.el in emacs-lisp-mode:
First checker to run:
emacs-lisp
- may enable: yes
- may run: t
- executable: Found at /nix/store/emacs/bin/emacs
- next checkers: emacs-lisp-checkdoc
Checkers that are compatible with this mode, but will not run until properly configured:
emacs-lisp-checkdoc (manually disabled) enable
- may enable: yes
- executable: Found at /nix/store/emacs/bin/emacs
Flycheck Mode is enabled. Use C-u C-c ! x to enable disabled
checkers.
