This construct is not very good. make-record is not first-class (It cannot be used as an argument to a function). Its first argument is not first-class (it has to be statically the name of a class). It exposes an implementation detail to client code (the name of a class). If you really wanted to add constructors, I would think of a make-MyRecord function or a multimethod as in your first post, or even both, rather than that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
