I think that's correct (with the exception you already mention yourself: you can use a :state structure containing multiple values). > I know that I can use gen-class's state variable to hold multiple > mutable structures by putting e.g. atoms inside of a map or record > stored in the state variable, or by storing a deftype instance with > mutable fields in the state variable. If you care mostly about performance, maybe using an array as :state will do. That's always mutable and access is really fast. Other than that, I agree with Marshall that Java is a solid DSL for writing Java classes. Bye, Tassilo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
