Regarding those... Some time ago I created a project containing only the persistent data structures for use with Java et al.
https://github.com/krukow/clj-ds It is the data structures only so no bootstrap penalty. There are also Java'ish "improvements" like basic Generics and improved performance on the iterator pattern. It's still on Clojure 1.3 (As far as I recall), but I am planning on taking another iteration. TODO: - better Generics support - more data structures (tries, RRB-trees) - include the reducers library support for parallelism given this is a spare time project, I welcome everyone interested to contribute. /Karl On 02/06/2012, at 23.00, Philip Potter wrote: > Yes it can!
