How to mock LFE-compiled module?

[Damian Dobroczyński]

... because meck needs abstract forms and they are absent in LFE-generated beams.

Is there any way library or something to handle this case?

There are no problems using meck together with LFE. The abstract you need for creating mock functions with meck:expect(Mod, Func, Fun) can directly be done using lambdas. For example like

(meck:expect 'dog 'bark (lambda () "Woof!"))

The lambda form returns a a fun. Is this what you meant?

Sorry I was not very detailed in my previous post.

I have regular Erlang files with proper properties. They use LFE modules. I tried to mock one of the modules (say, foo):

meck:new(foo, [passthrough]),

meck:expect(foo, bar, 0, something)

I'm obtaining during meck:new(foo, [passthrough]):

exception exit: {abstract_code_not_found,foo}
      in function  meck_proc:backup_original/4 (/home/damian/src/erl/foo-project/_build/test/lib/meck/src/meck_proc.erl, line 406)
      in call from meck_proc:init/1 (/home/damian/src/erl/foo-project/_build/test/lib/meck/src/meck_proc.erl, line 212)
      in call from gen_server:init_it/2 (gen_server.erl, line 374)
      in call from gen_server:init_it/6 (gen_server.erl, line 342)

The same happens in LFE-shell.
