Agreed. And I would actually want the lowercasing behavior to remain the default, for my own use anyway. What irks me more is the lack of translation between foo_bar and :foo-bar or, for folks who camelCase column names, between fooBar and :foo-bar perhaps. This all goes back to the idea of a "naming strategy" for translating between Clojure keywords and SQL entity names. I think at this point it makes sense to add a function to c.j.j that mimics the current resultset-seq functionality but allows for the application of naming strategies - with the default being the current behavior, and some other standard strategies available. The question then is whether the c.j.j function should also be called resultset-seq or whether a new name should be picked? However, c.j.j functions yield the _result_ of resultset-seq so perhaps it doesn't even need to expose the function itself? On the other hand, if c.j.j supports naming strategies to provide different keyword/entity translations, users may want to be able to apply the same translations to any raw resultSet objects they have...

It's a relatively small function so it should stay as-is in core - it should not depend on c.j.j. As Stuart notes, deprecation doesn't necessarily mean it will go away, just that users are discouraged from using it. One of the other languages I work with deprecated some functions about a decade ago but those functions are still present nearly half a dozen releases later :) -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
