Hi Clojure Group, I'm new to the group, apologies if this topic has been raised before. Basically I'm wondering if there is a reason why the form used to defined a function isn't attached as meta-data to the function. Clojure is a isomorphic language and this capability would really help me out with some libraries I'm building.
Clojure forms are pretty compact, much smaller than the compiled byte- code, I can't see it having a big impact on the memory footprint. People might argue that I could provide a local fn macro which captures the form meta-data and calls the clojure.core/fn macro to do the real work. The problem with this approach is that the reader macro #(%) expands to fn*. There is no way of overriding the fn* symbol. What are peoples thoughts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
