Hi, I've been using clojure for a few months now, but I've tried to avoid writing my own macros in production code, because of the general warnings I've heard about misusing their power and the challenges I've run into with debugging them.
I was looking through the core.async code, and I noticed that the go-loop macro is almost trivial (as far as I understand)[1]. I was wondering if people had advice on when to write these sorts of macros vs. when to just use the trivial expansion in the code? (Or alternatively, what am I missing in this macro definition?) (defmacro go-loop "Like (go (loop ...))" [bindings & body] `(go (loop ~bindings ~@body))) Thanks in advance, Alejandro [1]: https://github.com/clojure/core.async/blame/fe8103da637f2475e7fce5e9675326c7450c4399/src/main/clojure/clojure/core/async.clj#L446 -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
