The documentation for the `proxy' macro mentions lack of access in the defined implementation to protected members:
,----[ proxy ] | Note that while method fns can be provided to override protected | methods, they have no other access to protected members, nor to super, | as these capabilities cannot be proxied. `---- I just tried to define a proxy that overrides a protected method in the base class, and within that overridden method body attempts to call on some other protected method. It fails, reporting ,----[ IllegalArgumentException message prefix ] | No matching field found `---- That confirms the warning in the documentation. Is there any other way within Clojure to define a class that does have access to the protected methods of its base class? My motivating example: Writing an AbstractQueuedSynchronizer implementation, which involves a lot of interplay among overridden protected methods and calling on protected methods. -- Steven E.
