Yes, the examples in the book are missing some lines. I think the following log shows what they were going for:
joy.udp=> (remove-method compiler ::osx) joy.udp=> (def unix (into unix {::c-compiler "/usr/bin/gcc"})) joy.udp=> (def osx (into osx {:c-compiler "gcc"})) oy.udp=> osx {:home "/Users", :llvm-compiler "clang", :os :joy.udp/osx, :joy.udp/prototype {:home "/home", :os :joy.udp/unix, :c-compiler "cc", :dev "/dev"}, :c-compiler "gcc"} joy.udp=> unix {:home "/home", :joy.udp/c-compiler "/usr/bin/gcc", :os :joy.udp/unix, :c-compiler "cc", :dev "/dev"} joy.udp=> (compiler osx) "gcc" joy.udp=> (compile-cmd osx) "/usr/bin/gcc" About your question: > Isn't there a core function/macro where I can derive and set hierarchy all > at once? > Such a function would need to know in advance what hierarchy you want to construct. If you have a desired pattern of hierarchy that you want to reuse, you could define a function to create it using "derive" and optionally "make-hierarchy".
