You could do what one of my modern language (python) students did. Put the open parens at the end of the line and it looks like python! ( defun foo ( arg1 arg2 arg3 ) ( let ( tmp1 tmp2 ) ( firstFunction arg1 ) ( secondFunction arg2 ) ( thirdFunction arg3 ))) auggghhh! my eyes! my eyes

Is there a construct-hash macro?

2010-08-29 Thread Nicolas Oury
Dear all, when you write a deftype and want to define a hashCode method, it would be really great to have access to a macro (construct-hash arg1 argn) that would compute the hash code of each arguments and combine them in a good way to produce a hash-code. Is there anything like that in

Re: Is there a construct-hash macro?

2010-08-29 Thread Michał Marczyk
There's the undocumented clojure.core/hash-combine (wrapping a static method of clojure.lang.Util) which could perhaps be used for this purpose with reduce. It doesn't appear to be used anywhere, though -- I wonder about its current status...? At any rate, an officially supported (= documented)

Question about testing (and *load-tests*)

2010-08-29 Thread Sean Corfield
I'm sure this is just me being dumb about bindings but I've been writing tests and I saw in the docs it says you can cause deftest and with-test to not generate tests if you bind *load-tests* to false - for production. I can't quite get my head around how I would bind that variable in a way that

Re: Question about testing (and *load-tests*)

2010-08-29 Thread Stuart Sierra
Hi Sean, As far as I know, that feature never saw much use. Most people like to keep their test and main sources separate, and build tools assume this. To bind *load-tests* during compilation, you would need to control your own build process. Basically, you would have to launch Clojure and

That's a neat improvement to be able to ignore the value when you don't need it, thanks Michał Marczyk. Also, though both proxies happen to work with clojure's (read) function, every read operation of the pushback reader would have to be wrapped in the variable changing code to guarantee

Thanx Stuart. I had a feeling it might require that. I've mostly been using lein and keeping the tests separate but when I saw that in the docs I thought I'd try it because it would be kinda convenient inside CCW / Eclipse while developing. On Sunday, August 29, 2010, Stuart Sierra

So I thought I'd see if I could use tests in source code and add a hook to lein to bind *load-tests* to false around the compile but I'm missing something... Here's my hook: (ns leiningen.notests) (use 'robert.hooke) (defn no-tests [task args] (binding [clojure.test/*load-tests* false]

Performance of ensure

Re: Extending Clojure's STM with external transactions

I'm resurrecting this thread from quite a while ago... I'm very interested in being able to ensure that the state of a ref is persisted as part of the same transaction that updates the ref. Performance is not important; correctness is. Has any further work been done on this front?

I don't think two pases is enough. What if a clojure file uses reflection (with macros of course) on a compiled java file to generate classes, sort of like how lancet works but generating classes instead of functions? And then those classes are used from other clojure and java files. Oh, and

Hello, I don't know this library specifically, but the NPE is probably occurring in a static initialisation block. I believe static initialisation occurs when the class is first loaded. Regards, Stuart On 30 August 2010 06:42, zm zygiman...@medelis.lt wrote: I am using GATE java libs in my
