Re: clojure.contrib.enum Exception

Last version of Clojure should be at the moment of writing this SVN 1176. Clojure's source repo (and also Clojure contrib) has moved to Google Code. See http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/6b4a5284d61a682a/42495079592facd7 for more details. Lauri On Sun, Dec 21, 2008 at

You propose a clever trick, but unfortunately it would require even more cleverness. What if foo, bar, and baz live in different libraries, and you reload one of the libraries as part of a dynamic update at runtime? How would the inline copies know they needed to update? I am happy with e

Re: December monads

I also think this would be a great addition to clojure-contrib. Because of the way most monad tutorials are written, monads seem to be pretty hard to get your head around. Also, many of the reasons for the standard monads in Haskell don't exist in impure functional languages like Clojure. So th

Re: December monads

Hi, Although I am not a big fan of monads (I can't help the feeling this abstraction is more difficult than the problem to solve) this starts looking like a nice framework that should probably go into clojure-contrib (perhaps with policy of not using this mechanism in other clojure-contrib libs).

I've never done that in Clojure, but another developer at the company I work for made a java utility that allows you to refer to classpath resources as URLs. It's on sourceforge in a package called "OpenHMS Common Utilities": http://openhms.sourceforge.net/common-util/ There's a class called com
