Hi, Is there an elegant way of expressing multiple-dispatch (with support for inheritance) with Clojure's multimethod system?
ie. (defmulti get-length :class) (defmethod get-length :shape [] (bla bla bla)) get-length can be called by any map who's :class is derived from :shape. But what if we want multiple-dispatch? (defmulti multiply (fn [a b] [(:class a) (:class b)])) (defmethod multiply [:shape :car] [opA opB] (bla bla bla)) My intention is that multiply can be called by: (multiply my-shape my-car) AND ALSO: (multiply my-rectangle my-volkswagen) Thanks for your help -Patrick --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
