I'm looking through the primitives that Clojure has for STM with refs, and it seems nice and minimal, except for these two functions, which I can't tease apart. From the documentation,
*(ref-set ref val)* Must be called in a transaction. Sets the value of ref. Returns val. *(alter ref fun & args)* Must be called in a transaction. Sets the in-transaction-value of ref to: > (apply fun in-transaction-value-of-ref args) > and returns the in-transaction-value of ref. Does ref-set not set the "in-transaction-value"? It looks like the only difference is the signature, and that can't be right. -- Adam Blinkinsop <bli...@acm.org> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
