Hello again,
This has solved the issue:
(let [cache (atom {})
cache-eval (fn [obj]
(when-not (contains? @cache obj)
(reset! cache (assoc @cache obj (eval obj))))
(@cache obj))]
(defmacro def-cached
"Just as def, however it will return an existing object if it has
already been defined with it"
[fname fbody]
(intern *ns* (symbol fname) (cache-eval fbody)))
(defmacro eval-cached
"Just as eval, however it will return an existing object if it has
already been evaluated with it"
[obj]
(cache-eval obj)))
However it'll be good if someone could share some insight why a macro
cannot call another one and what is the general solution in such a
case
