In case anyone else has a similar problem, the blindingly stupid mistake was sloppy programming on my part. I had assumed that define-layered-method worked the same as defmethod, so I could get away without using define-layered-function first because define-layered-method would do it for me, especially since I got a warning saying that the generic function had implicitly been created. Bad assumption. It all works fine as long as you remember to use define-layered-function to create the generic first. <BR><BR>Nick<BR><BR><DIV><SPAN class="gmail_quote">On 2/20/06, <B class="gmail_sendername">Nick Bourner</B> <<A href="mailto:nickb42@gmail.com">nickb42@gmail.com</A>> wrote:</SPAN><BLOCKQUOTE class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi all,<BR><BR>I'm having some troubles getting started with layered functions in ContextL - I keep getting undefined-function errors when I try to use a layered function, which I'd expect if I wasn't making the appropriate layer active.
