Question

I’m trying to pass one method to another in elisp, and then have that method execute it. Here is an example:

(defun t1 ()   't1')  (defun t2 ()   't1')  (defun call-t (t)   ; how do I execute 't'?   (t))  ; How do I pass in method reference? (call-t 't1) 

Answer 1

First, I’m not sure that naming your function t is helping as ‘t’ is used as the truth value in lisp.

That said, the following code works for me:

(defun test-func-1 ()  'test-func-1'    (interactive '*')    (insert-string 'testing callers'))  (defun func-caller (callee)   'Execute callee'   (funcall callee))  (func-caller 'test-func-1) 

Please note the use of ‘funcall’, which triggers the actual function call.
