Micha, we have encountered a serious problem here! This is very bad.
It is not your fault, it is the fault of the way the clojure is designed and how the current distribution of clojure leverages the Java Virtual Machine and it's ancillary resources like ant. It is not to say that I - with the help of good people like you - and other generous souls in the is community - can't make clojure work, my concern is about DEPLOYMENT. Right now, I'm thinking """ What about DEPLOYING my clojure applications to web servers or network servers where the system adminstraters are over tasked or want solutions to come at a click of button """ If we go any further here, it will be because someone will step in and say " we have not done enough to make clojure installable and deployable. Let us fix this! " Let me focus the attention of anyone who might be reading this to the file named: `readme.txt' at the top of the directory unzipped from `clojure-1.1.0.zip' The following instructions (and ONLY the following instructions) are present """ To Run: java -cp clojure.jar clojure.main To Build: ant """ This is sadly insufficient. Any system administrator that will find this acceptable is one that I'm going to love to play poker with - because I am going to clean him out. If there are enough fools like that that I can find, I can retire from coding and just make a living playing poker. :) Before I procede o: Installation must be made easier o: Instructions must be made easier o: Methods for deployments must be made easier. thanks again Micha -- Tim t...@johnsons-web.com http://www.akwebsoft.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
