- Download: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/clojure/clojure/1.8.0-alpha5 - Leiningen: [org.clojure/clojure "1.8.0-alpha5"] The 1.8.0-alpha5 release reverts the change made for CLJ-1250 <http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1250> in 1.8.0-alpha3 due to issues covered in CLJ-1793 <http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1793>. String Functions Several new string functions were added to increase portability with ClojureScript and reduce the need for Java interop calls: - clojure.string/index-of - search for the index of a char or string in a string - clojure.string/last-index-of - search for the index of a char or string backwards in a string - clojure.string/starts-with? - true if string starts with a substring - clojure.string/ends-with? - true if string ends with a substring - clojure.string/includes? - true if string includes a substring For more info: - CLJ-1449 <http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1449> *Server Socket and REPL * *This feature is a work in progress, and feedback is appreciated!* The Clojure runtime now has the ability to start a socket server at initialization based on system properties. One expected use for this is serving a socket-based REPL, but it also has many other potential uses for dynamically adding server capability to existing programs without code changes. A socket server will be started for each JVM system property like "clojure.server.<server-name>". The value for this property is an edn map representing the configuration of the socket server with the following properties: - server-daemon - defaults to true, socket server thread doesn't block exit - address - host or address, defaults to loopback - port - positive integer, required - accept - namespaced symbol of function to invoke on socket accept, required - args - sequential collection of args to pass to accept - bind-err - defaults to true, binds `*err*` to socket out stream - client-daemon - defaults to true, socket client thread doesn't block exit Additionally, there is a repl function provided that is slightly customized for use with the socket server in clojure.core.server/repl. Following is an example of starting a socket server with a repl listener. This can be added to any existing Clojure program to allow it to accept external REPL clients via a local connection to port 5555. -Dclojure.server.repl="{:port 5555 :accept clojure.core.server/repl}" An example client you can use to connect to this socket repl is telnet: $ telnet 127.0.0.1 5555 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. user=> (println "hello") hello See: * CLJ-1671 <http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1671> * Socket REPL design page <http://dev.clojure.org/display/design/Socket+Server+REPL> *Other changes* Below is a list of the other changes included in alpha5.
