you're right, I somehow didn't read what he was using it for, just looked at the examples he gave and assumed generic var
In a way I'm in his shoes, but I always assumed that the user would use binding even if that meant encompassing the whole program in it. Like if you wanted to disable asserts ok bad example since set! works for this too, but I have something like that and I was ok with the idea that the user would use binding around the whole code to set that. Maybe I should consider other alternatives... but now I can't think:) On Thu, May 16, 2013 at 3:01 PM, Jim <jimpil1...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 16/05/13 12:52, AtKaaZ wrote: > >> why not ref and dosync? >> > > a bit heavyweight isn't it? > > A bit off topic but I remember when Clojure came out, STM was the big > selling point!
