It might help thinking in terms of Java interfaces, Foo and Bar. (definterface Foo (foo [])) (definterface Bar (bar []))
(I Foo Bar) is a value that extends both Foo and Bar. (deftype IImp [] Foo (foo [this]) Bar (bar [this])) (->IImp) is of type Foo, Bar, (I Foo Bar) and (U Foo Bar). Assuming we assign (->IImp) the type (I Foo Bar), we can call these safely: (let [i :- (I Foo Bar), (->IImp)] (.foo i) (.bar i)) A type that just implements Foo is not a Bar, so we can't claim it's a Foo *and* a Bar. (deftype UImp [] Foo (foo [this])) (->UImp) is of type Foo, and (U Foo Bar). Assuming we assign (->UImp) the type (U Foo Bar), the same operations now must cast at runtime. (let [i :- (U Foo Bar), (->UImp)] (if (instance? Foo) (.foo i) (.bar i)) Thanks, Ambrose On Thu, Apr 16, 2015 at 5:15 PM, Sven Richter <sver...@googlemail.com> wrote: > I meant when I change: > > (t/HVec [Keyword (t/U Keyword (t/HVec [Keyword Number])) t/Any t/Any *]) > to (t/HVec [Keyword (t/I Keyword (t/HVec [Keyword Number])) t/Any t/Any *]) > > ^^ > to ^^ > Still I think that making an intersection of it is wrong conceptually. > > > Thanks, > Sven > > Am Donnerstag, 16.
