syntax

(static-rename name-id expr)

Equivalent to expr, but adjusts the statically inferred name for expr so that (syntax-local-name) produces 'name-id while expanding expr. This allows adjusting the names of things like procedures, which infer their runtime names based on static information. Unlike procedure-rename, however, static-rename does not introduce any additional runtime cost.

For more information, see Inferred Value Names.

Examples:
> (define f (λ (x) x))
> f

#<procedure:f>

> (define g (static-rename renamed (λ (x) x)))
> g

#<procedure:renamed>

syntax

(define/renamed name-id id expr)

(define/renamed name-id (head args) body ...+)
 
head = id
  | (head args)
     
args = arg ...
  | arg ... . rest-id
     
arg = arg-id
  | [arg-id default-expr]
  | keyword arg-id
  | keyword [arg-id default-expr]
Defines a binding, just like define, but expr is statically renamed using static-rename. Also like define, define/renamed is a shorthand form for defining a function, which will use name-id for the runtime name produced by object-name.

Examples:
> (define/renamed bar (foo x)
    (* 2 x))
> (foo 3)

6

> foo

#<procedure:bar>

> (object-name foo)

'bar
