subj. Something like:
(lexical-let (oldf #'original-func)
(flet ((original-func (arg)
do-something
(funcall oldf arg)))
do-something))
don't work :(

Hopefully this will help you with the syntax, calling swap-function calls foo1 but executes foo2.
You could write this as a useful macro with-replace-function which binds the old function with the new function while executing a body you pass in.
(defun foo1()
(insert "hi foo1"))
(defun foo2()
(insert "hi foo2"))
(defun swap-function(old new)
(let ((save-func (symbol-function old)))
(fset old (symbol-function new))
(funcall old)
(fset old save-func)))
(swap-function #'foo1 #'foo2)
There is no reader macros in emacs-lisp, you need to use
symbol-function
explicitly.
(defun test-1 (x)
(message "base test %s" x))
(let ((old-test-1 (symbol-function 'test-1))
(z 10))
(flet ((test-1 (y)
(funcall old-test-1 y)
(message "extended test %s" y)))
(nic-test-1 z)))
If you want to use it as a closure you'll need to use lexical-let
instead of let
or set lexical-binding
to T
.
