Hi guys,
everyone suggested that I don't need to use '.' when calling methods
from a record and in fact doing this gets rid of reflection...However,
now that I moved my records in different namespaces than the protocols
they satisfy it seems that I can no longer do that! example follows:
(ns place1)
(defprotocol p1
method1
method2
......)
(defprotocol p2
method1
method2
......)
(ns place2)
(defrecord rec1
place1/p1
method1 [this] (.....)
method2 [this] (.....)
place1/p2
method1 [this] (.....)
method2 [this] (.....)
)
If all of the above are in the same namespace everything works just
fine - I don't need (.method1 rec1). If I put them in separate
namespaces (as shown above) I cannot do (method1 rec1) and even though
it will compile if I do (.method1 rec1) I will get an error at runtime
(field cannot be resolved or something)...
any ideas? I'm suspecting I need to :import all records (rec1 rec2
rec3) to place1 but it is not obvious why (at least to me!)...since the
protocol is there what is the problem dispatching to the appropriate
concrete class? Maybe because the actual concrete classes (records) are
in a different package from Java's perspective? But then, if that is
true, how can I let the consumer create his own records which satisfy p1
and that can be used inside place1 without touching it...
any pointers are greatly appreciated... :-)
Jim
