Interesting. I was actually looking for this functionality the other day. The form you describe is almost exactly what I would expect. I have found that the new (:gen-class) post AOT leads quite naturally to a OOP style of programming when interacting Qt-Jambi. I'm torn as to whether this is a good or a bad thing (it may be neither, just a reality). Realising this certainly made doing this kind of work more intuitive - and (super) would actually solve some problems for me. -- Geoffrey Teale Freelance Software and Technology Consultant Munich, Germany --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
