I have a suggestion for the with-open macro. It calls .close when it's finished. I'd like it to have a (defmulti close type) so it's behavior is extensible. A standard method could be defined for java.io.Closeable and a :default method with no type hint. I've come across a few cases where some external library defines what is essentially a close method but names it shutdown or disable, etc., and defining my own close method would be much easier than rewriting with-open. This would also allow people to eliminate reflection for classes like sql Connection that were created before Closeable.
I'll submit a patch if it's wanted. This would fit in core, or maybe contrib.duck-streams with a slightly different name. -Mike --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
