Hello Group, I'm writing a web server in Clojure and I'd love to have a bit of help on a function I have.
This function (and at http://gist.github.com/305909) is used to read the HTTP request from a client and to then act on it: (defn handle-request [in out] (binding [*in* (BufferedReader. (InputStreamReader. in))] (let [client-out (OutputStreamWriter. out)] (loop [lines []] (let [input (read-line)] (if (= (.length input) 0) ;; 0 length line means it's time to serve the resource (println lines) ;; add to the lines vector and keep going ;; note it makes the incoming request reversed (recur (cons input lines)))))))) The code works fine; I've left out the bit that actually does something and replaced it with a println call. It's not very functional feeling though. The loop/recur and the building of a list seems very imperative to me. I'd much rather use something from clojure.contrib.io, probably using read-lines or something. Thanks for looking and for any suggestions!
