Hi,
if he was talking about the things, Joe Duffy describes on [1], those were way more general purpose. Clojure carefully combines several features, (i.e. immutable data, persistent datastructures, reference types) to allow the current implementation of STM. For example Clojure does not contain arbitrary rollbacks, and it does not collect state-transitions. Of course it will have to prove itself in the next few years. Kind regards, Stefan [1] http://www.bluebytesoftware.com/blog/2010/01/03/ABriefRetrospectiveOnTransactionalMemory.aspx -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
