Yeah, it's annoying, no doubt. I have a bunch of classes that do nothing
but override a protected method with a public one so I can proxy without
warnings, some that I have to use because I can't create a non-trivial
constructor, and so forth.

FWIW, in Cursive, which is a big ball of mixed Clojure + Java, I've given
up trying to use gen-class and have started using Java shims for
everything. I like it a lot more than gen-class, which I always feel like
I'm fighting. With the new Java->Clojure API in 1.6 (or the equivalent
using RT.var()
Ok, thanks! I will have a look!

Yeah, gen-class is the thing. Proxy, well, proxies, but genclass
produces a statically compiled ahead of time class. It's a real Java
class, so yes, you can use it from Clojure like any other Java class.
Genclass is a little more painful than proxy, but probably a little less
painful than having
Is that via gen-class? I have to admit that I am not very familiar with
gen-class, is it still possible to use the class from Clojure?
Yes, that is probably the most pragmatic choice, premature optimization and
all that.

Hi,
I am trying to understand what the best course of action would be in the
following scenario:
I have a Java base class that I need to extend. The class is fundamental to
my application and will be running fairly hot compared to other bits of
code in the application. Therefore I want it to e
