I'm beginning a foray into protocols after coming from the Common Lisp world of multimethods. I'm using them initially to implement a consistent load/save API over the DB layer.
It's pretty simple to have a Saveable protocol to save one object, because the first argument is a Record of the type I am saving. But since protocols dispatch on the first argument, how do you define a Loadable protocol that loads an object or handles a collection of objects? For example, if I want to load an object by idx, the first argument is not a Record, but an integer, or perhaps an arbitrary field to used in a query. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
