Re: a question for crate and hiccup

Re: ANN: clj-schema, Schemas For Clojure Maps
Hello Alex, This looks very useful, thanks. What's the license under which you are releasing this code? Also, I'm wondering whether something like that could be the next step for Typed Clojure. From Ambrose's thesis, I got the impression that he would like Typed Clojure to eventually cater for checking the contents of maps.

So as the standard form of a map changes over time the tests will stay in sync with those changes automatically. * there are some code-readability benefits as well - any developer can pretty quickly see what certain kinds of maps tend to look like. There's more info in the README: https://github.com/runa-dev/clj-schema/blob/master/README.md Future possibilities: * auto-generating test data from clj-schema fixtures * being able to create schemas for sets and sequences (currently a schema is always for a map) Contributors welcome.

Re: Docs on standard protocols
Having a good Java IDE around (e.g. Eclipse or IntelliJ) certainly
helps, though not so much in developing a comprehensive mental model
of how everything fits together.
Some years ago, Chris Houser worked at building static visualizations
of the core Clojure interfaces and abstract implementations, and how
those fed into the concrete implementations of maps, seqs, etc. that
we use daily:
https://github.com/Chouser/clojure-classes/blob/master/graph-w-legend.png
I had similar objectives, but wanted to tie implementation details
(e.g. the Java interfaces that Clojure defined) together with related
functions, and the higher-level concepts that further related those
functions to others, etc. Add in a dynamic visualization, and you get
Clojure Atlas:
http://www.clojureatlas.com
For example, here's the atlas focused on graph around
PersistentHashMap, the concrete implementation behind e.g. `{:a 1 :b 2}
`:
http://www.clojureatlas.com/org.clojure:clojure:1.4.0?guest=t#clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap

Macro not being expanded?
Sometimes I want to do the same thing for multiple classes of
exceptions without writing very similar catch clauses repeatedly, so I
wrote a macro:
(defmacro try*
Exactly like try, except that catch statements can contain a
sequence of exception-types which should all be handled in the same
way. E.g.:
(try* expr1 expr2
(catch ArithmeticException a-exc ...)
(catch [Exception AssertionError] e ...)
(finally ...)
[ exprs]
(letfn [(is-multi-catch? [expr] (sequential? (second expr)))
(expand-catches [expr] (map (fn [exn-type] (list* 'catch
exn-type (drop 2 expr))) (second expr)))
(is-postlude? [expr] (and (list? expr) (#{'finally 'catch}
(first expr]
(let [[exprs postlude] (split-with (complement is-postlude?) exprs)
[catches finally] (split-with (comp #{'catch} first) postlude)
catches (mapcat #(if (is-multi-catch? %) (expand-catches %)
[%]) catches)]
;; kick errors down to core try
`(try ~@exprs
~@catches
~@finally
This seems to work fine.
But it *doesn't* work inside a different macro:
user (defmacro g [ forms] `(try* ~@forms (catch [Exception
AssertionError] e# 6)))
#'user/g
user (g 2 3)
; Evaluation aborted
with the error: Unable to resolve classname: [java.lang.Exception
java.lang.AssertionError]
These macroexpansions are as expected:
user (macroexpand-1 '(g 2 3))
(user/try* 2 3 (catch [java.lang.Exception java.lang.AssertionError]
e__45530__auto__ 6))
user (macroexpand-1 '(user/try* 2 3 (catch [java.lang.Exception
java.lang.AssertionError] e__45530__auto__ 6)))
(try 2 3 (catch java.lang.Exception e__45530__auto__ 6) (catch
java.lang.AssertionError e__45530__auto__ 6))
But the second one here (the first is identical to the above) is not:
user (macroexpand-1 '(g 2 3))
(user/try* 2 3 (catch [java.lang.Exception java.lang.AssertionError]
e__45530__auto__ 6))
user (macroexpand-1 *1)
(try 2 3 (catch [java.lang.Exception java.lang.AssertionError]
e__45530__auto__ 6))
What's going on? Where'd my try* go?

Re: a question for crate and hiccup
PPK has numbers for this from a few years
ago: http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/innerhtml.html
A more recent benchmark: http://andrew.hedges.name/experiments/innerhtml/
There used to be a huge difference in favor of strings + innerHTML, but
with recent browsers the situation seems to have evened out.
I did a more or less direct port of Hiccup to ClojureScript last year,
which also returns strings like the original:
https://github.com/teropa/hiccups. I haven't really been maintaining it,
though, so it might take some work to get it running with recent

Re: Current status of Clojure on Android?
Curtis, I have successful built a ClojureScript app that uses SL4A (Rhino). The startup time is an issue, the performance isn't great but is acceptable. If you're just prototyping something or need a tool for in-house use - this is one alternative. Given the work and efforts that Cesar highlighted, you might be better off with straight Clojure. Depending on the requirements of your app, you might also consider an HTML5 client-side application, and rely upon CSS functionality for graphical support. This would free you from Java, enable you to use ClojureScript, and comes with a lot of tooling support (and flexibility).

ClojureScript One Architecture
Hi, I really like the design decisions taken by ClojureScript One and I would like use them to build applications at work. Unfortunately it is not possible to use clojure at work but I'm think of using a similar approach with javascript. In your knowledge what is the javascript framework that is similar to ClojureScript One? Backbone, Angular,.. etc? Is there a library that I can use to perform dispatch/fire/watch?

[cljs] Implement transport for a REPL
Hi, I have a special non-browser environment which doesn't support a ClojureScript REPL at the moment. I was wondering if someone has any insight into how much work it would be to create an equivalent of the browser-connected repl for a new environment. That is, I'd like a repl running in the command line, reading, js-compiling, and (via some mechanism) sends JS to the other environment, evaluates the JS in the env and prints the response. I don't have any experience building such a thing, but my (perhaps naive) hope would be that if only I can provide the transport mechanism to/from the environment, most of the additional work could be stolen from what has already been built?

Re: help choosing dev environment for clojure
It is possible to execute forms in a debugging context but AFAIK there is no easy setup that allows you to step through the execution. The easiest way to evaluate forms in context is to setup emacs as described here http://clojure-doc.org/articles/tutorials/emacs.html. This will allow you to set breakpoints by inserting (swank.core/break) as described here http://hugoduncan.org/post/2010/swank_clojure_gets_a_break_with_the_local_environment.xhtml. This slime/swank setup is robust and well documented. nrepl-ritz offers a new way to set up emacs with a debugger. It has just been introduced by Hugo Duncan in the Clojure/conj and it works well for me. It is described here https://github.com/pallet/ritz/tree/develop/nrepl. It brings some functionality that is not available through slime/swank but it is not as complete and battle tested. To me the biggest benefit of this new setup is the ability to examine the stacktrace on exceptions. It allows you to inspect values and evaluate expressions at any point in the stacktrace. I find this to be helpful not only for my own errors but also for compiler errors because you can often find the expression that the compiler is complaining about somewhere in the stacktrace. Stepping through the execution is harder to setup but it might be possible. The CDT debugger can be set up as described here http://georgejahad.com/clojure/swank-cdt.html. It worked great for me at some point but I'm no longer using it because doesn't work with openjdk AFAIK, On Monday, November 26, 2012 11:15:44 PM UTC+1, Sol Tourne wrote: In your list, the only thing you won't be able to do with Eclipse is executing clojure forms in the context of the breakpoint. Thanks, that's very useful info. Is that doable in emacs? (ie 'executing clojure forms in the context of the breakpoint'.) The answers so far emphasize emacs' customisability (which is great) but say nothing about stepping through the execution with a debugger -- is that something that's not doable with emacs?

Re: help choosing dev environment for clojure
Did you look at what vimclojure (+ nailgun server + lein vimclojure plugin) currently provides? It doesn't use nrepl yet, but I'd be curious to know how its features relate to emacs' clojure plugins, and also how their features may be valuable when it comes to working with noir/compojure/ring. The thing is that thanks to ring's automatic code reload middleware, I never felt the need to have a tight integration between the editor and the REPL, but as I've been doing Clojure for only 3 months I may be missing something.

Re: Using a dynamic number of lvars in core.logic.
I had some trouble because all goals need to take in the list of lvars. `infd` doesn't take in a list, but your sudoku blog post has `all-infd` which does the trick: (defn all-infd Assign a domain to all vars. [vars domain] (if (seq vars) (all (domfd (first vars) domain) (all-infd (next vars) domain)) succeed)) Which means that `distinct-numbers` can be written as such: (defn distinct-numbers [n min max] Generate all combinations of n numbers between min and max.

Defining comparison functions for complex data types
A long time ago, I wrote this simple heap implementation: https://gist.github.com/4158634 There are a lot of rough edges here. Many of them could be cleaned up (ie, replaced with standard library functions) if I could rely on the contents of the heap being trivially comparable using and methods. However, I'd like to be able to put complex data types into my heap, so I need to be able to supply comparison logic, potentially even for functions (like min-key) that don't allow me to explicitly provide one. I have the sense that this sort of thing is possible using deftype, defrecord, multimethods, or protocols, but I'm having a hard time figuring out where to start my education on these topics - there's a lot to know about all of this stuff. Can anyone suggest a place where I can get started? Thanks! Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.

Re: ANN: clj-schema, Schemas For Clojure Maps
Hi Stathis, Thanks for your interestin clj-schema. If you use it and have any feedback please let me know. clj-schema is released under the MIT license: http://mit-license.org/ I think TypedClojure is really cool. I'm excited about both approaches because in general I'm very interested in approaches to coding that help us ensure that our code works correctly. That said there are some interesting differences in the approaches: - schemas can be used for other things other than validation or type checking. - schemas are more decoupled from the code. Say you are reading a map out of a file, or get a map returned from another library. With schemas you could easily validate the map. How would that be handled in a TypeClojure approach? Also, schema validation only checks at a snapshot in time; it makes no effort to ensure that that map is always correct. - schema validation happens at run-time; TypedClojure is a static analysis tool. ( Of course, if there was some kind of adapter for TypedClojure it could take schemas as params to the type declarations.)

Also, I'm wondering whether something like that could be the next step for Typed Clojure.

Re: help choosing dev environment for clojure
When considering the availability of a debugger, keep in mind that your workflow might be different when you code Clojure compared to how you approach Java, Ruby etc. Because functions require less context to run than methods of an object, I find that experimenting at the REPL (or rather executing forms within my editor) a better way to work out what's going on than debugging through an actual program execution.

Re: Clojure Recursion (loop-recur) Questions
Yes, that wasn't very clear of me. Here is what I was thinking when writing that. In Scheme, which has general tail-call optimization, you will often find functions written where the programmer went out of their way to change it from recursive, but doesn't use tail calls, into something that recursive and uses tail calls. There are sections in introductory Scheme books showing how to change non-tail-recursive functions into tail-recursive ones, using accumulator parameters. The programmer did this because they wanted to take advantage of tail-call optimization and avoid using stack space linear in the depth of recursive calls. This becomes almost natural after a while, and it makes sense -- you don't want to use linear stack space for processing long linear data structures when you know you could use constant space with a bit more coding effort. I can't say this authoritatively, but I think it is far less common for programmers to go out of their way to change calls to other functions into tail calls, if they weren't originally written as tail calls. Sets of 2 or more functions that are mutually recursive are less common than self-recursive ones. I know that there are Scheme programs that take advantage of general tail calls to write state machines where each state is a separate function and they call each other, and other programs like that, but tail-recursive functions are pervasive in Scheme.

(b) tail recursion is far more commonly used in languages that have it than the general tail-call optimization to arbitrary functions ... is used in languages that have *it* (i.e. general TCO). But in (a), general tail-call optimization to arbitrary functions couldn't be used very much in those languages; they don't have it. And in (b), general TCO subsumes the optimization of tail recursion and comes into play whenever a procedure is called from tail position, so it would seem to be used pervasively in languages that have general TCO. -- Ben Wolfson -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.

Re: [ANN] modern-cljs - tutorial 8 and CLJS patch
Thanks Michael, hope to mantain myself to your generous judgment. mimmo (it's my nickname) On Nov 27, 2012, at 9:09 PM, Michael Klishin michael.s.klis...@gmail.com wrote: 2012/11/27 Giacomo Cosenza mimmo.cose...@gmail.com Hope you find it useful Giacomo, This is fantastic. I think this may be the most valuable source of information about CLJS on the Web. We will figure out a way to add ClojureScript content to http://clojure-doc.org, this has to be easier to discover. -- MK http://github.com/michaelklishin http://twitter.com/michaelklishin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.
