apply-macro is a bad idea because it evaluates a macro at runtime. Macros
are supposed to be evaluated at compile-time, so apply-macro breaks
assumptions about how macros are supposed to work. It's basically a back
door into `eval`, which is considered bad style in Lisp-like languages.

Thanks that's good to know. While we're on the subject, I'm curious
about cc.apply-macro. Why should it no
No. Clojure template (which I wrote) is a backwards way of doing macros. It
happens to be useful in clojure.test, but nowhere else.

Thanks, looks good. I haven't had a chance to play with the code yet
but it looks like a very good start.

Sure. You may want to have a look at https://gist.github.com/876029

Hi Everyone,
Background to my problem:
I am developing a compojure application, and there is lots of
duplication in listing field names in my current data model:
(i) in the defstruct
(ii) in the public constructor's argument list
(iii) in the hiccup form fields
(iv) in the compojure argument des

Great, I will have a look thanks.

Hi Ambrose,
Thanks for the advice. I have already implemented my application using
maps (defstruct) and busy evaluating whether I should switch to
records. I like the idea of using records and protocols to help me to
define strict abstractions and to do easy type dispatch. On the other
hand I can
I'm not exactly sure of your specific use case, but you should take a
look at clojure.template. It could be what you're looking for.

Hi David,
I can only comment on a subset of your post.
Records can be cumbersome to work with during early stages of development,
when
everything is rather volatile (when isn't it?).
You might like to try using maps instead. They are easier to work with when
you are

G'day everyone,
Are there any libraries or projects that are similar to Python Traits
or Zope Schemas (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.schema) for clojure.
I am developing a compojure application and there is a lot of
duplication between areas of the codebase, e.g.
