Hi Jürgen, Things are declared :private usually because the author of the library didn't want to commit to a public API function in future releases. The var-get trick works fine (you can also write @#'io/do-copy) but there's no promise that `do-copy` will stay the same between releases. As long as you're aware that your code might be broken by a future release, there's no reason not to extend it as you did.
Since Clojure is designed to be compatible with JDK 1.5, it doesn't use NIO2 anywhere. Perhaps conditional compilation (a possible feature for Clojure 1.6) will make it possible to support newer JDK features like NIO2. -S On Friday, February 22, 2013 12:23:27 PM UTC-5, Jürgen Hötzel wrote: > > Hi, > > I implemented > > (defmethod (var-get #'io/do-copy) [Path Path] [#^Path input #^Path output > opts] ...) > > for fast NIO2 io, but had to do the var-get workaround because do-copy is > defined private. > > Jürgen > > -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
