Accessing protected methods is a pain. You could do it with reflection, as Bill said.
In gen-class, you need to add the `:exposes-methods` option to gen-class. This will make the protected method available as a public method, under an alternate name. For example, if you're extending Java class A which has protectedMethod(parameter), you would have something like: (ns com.example.subclass-of-A (:gen-class :extends com.example.A :exposes-methods {protectedMethod exposedSuperMethod})) (defn -protectedMethod [this parameter] (.exposedSuperMethod this parameter)) -Stuart Sierra clojure.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
