This weekend I finally got around to converting all my deftype-and- defprotocol-using code to the current Clojure new branch. It is now more compact and more readable, and the few parts where performance matters are faster. A big step forward! > Small changes include: > > - No more use of . in reify/deftype method names > - No more implicit this in reify/deftype That's the only feature that I regret a bit. It looks weird in a functional language to have functions (or something that is very similar) that have an implicit argument named outside its definition (in the :as option). Of course, one can think of it as similar to a closure over the object, but it still looks a bit weird to me.
