Again, it's not about getting rid of (:use) functionality, but rather let everything be declared through (:require), and deprecating the use of :use (:use foo :only [a b c]) will become (:require foo :refer [a b c]) (:use foo) will become (:require foo :refer :all) This will save lots of time and frustration among people trying to remember why (:use :only) somewhere, why (:require :refer :all) somewhere else, etc. This is, IMHO, and it seems that Phil & other agree with that, the simplest thing that has a chance to work, and maximizes cost/benefit ratio. > > > > -- > > Philippe Guillebert > > > > -- > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google > Groups "Clojure" group. > To post to this group, send email to clojure@googlegroups.com > Note that posts from new members are moderated - please be patient with your > first post. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > clojure+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/clojure?hl=en > --- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Clojure" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to clojure+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > > -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
