Hi all, I've been watching the development of ClojureCLR with some interest - my research group have roughly equivalent APIs in C# and Java and we're going to want to formalize the arrangement soon. At the same time I've been using Clojure as a functional JVM lang. It would be sweet to write this library once in Clojure such that it would run on either platform.
I'd assumed that a good way to proceed would be to favour use of libraries, to create an idiomatic way of denoting platform-native functions (similar to using ! to highlight side-effects), and then maybe to work out a way to rebinding native function names to their platform specific implementations at runtime. I'm not sure I'm in line with community wisdom here though - I get the impression that there's a directive to make fairly heavy use of the underlying platforms, and that ClojureCLR will therefore be a parallel implementation of Clojure, rather than an alternative core under a larger pure Clojure universe of contrib libraries and developer code. Have I understood this right? What will be the best way to go about writing and managing a cross-platform Clojure library?
