Hey, I'm starting to get the hang of Clojure(Script) and I'm really enjoying it. I'd love to use it for a project but I have one major concern: How reliable is {:optimizations :advanced}?
Advanced Compilation basically wins the whole argument for clojurescript but I managed to break it on a very simple project. I assume it broke because I tried to use jQuery and didnt stick to the closure library. The only reason I wanted to jQuery is because I'm very familiar with it (and javascript itself for that matter) and basically know nothing about closure, but I did some (rtfm closure) and managed to get it working without jQuery. Turns out you really dont need it. So is it a fair assumption that as long as I stick to Closure Library + any ClojureScript itself I'm good on the :advanced part? I'm not interested in node.js as a :target, only the Browser. Falling back to {:optimizations :simple} really is not an option since the resulting javascript is way too big. Cheers, /thomas PS: My Experiments with jQuery: http://www.zilence.net/cljs/index-dev.html http://www.zilence.net/cljs/index-simple.html http://www.zilence.net/cljs/index-advanced.html https://github.com/thheller/cljs-experiments/blob/master/src-jquery/jqtest/app.cljs The App is pointless and only tested in Chrome (firefox/ie dont like input[type='range']) but it should update the the input when you move the slider and update the slider when you change the input. dev/simple work fine, advanced breaks with some undebuggable error. I assume because the compiler optimized something away. The Closure Version: http://www.zilence.net/cljs/index-closure-advanced.html https://github.com/thheller/cljs-experiments/blob/master/src-closure/ctest/app.cljs Basically the same amount of code, so no reason to use jQuery. But I'd still be interested to know why the jQuery version breaks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
