Hi there, I'm using Clojure 1.3.0 and am running into what seems like an edge- case problem with extend-protocol (?)...
Given (defprotocol MyProtocol (action [x])), (extend-protocol MyProtocol (Class/forName "[B") (action [x] "ByteArray") java.lang.Integer (action [x] "Integer")) expands to (do (clojure.core/extend-type java.lang.Integer MyProtocol (action [x] "Integer")) (clojure.core/extend-type (Class/forName "[B") MyProtocol (action [x] "ByteArray"))) which works as expected. Note the acrobatics to get a byte[] class. BUT, if I reorder the implementations, (extend-protocol MyProtocol java.lang.Integer (action [x] "Integer") (Class/forName "[B") (action [x] "ByteArray")) the expansion becomes (do (clojure.core/extend-type java.lang.Integer MyProtocol (action [x] "Integer") (Class/forName "[B") (action [x] "ByteArray"))), which is malformed. Am I correct in assuming this isn't the desired behaviour? Thanks! -- Peter Taoussanis -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
