The same problem exists with OO. For example, maybe you return a Headers object from a request. A couple of releases down the line you realize you need to include some additional info, and now your request method returns a Response, which has a getHeaders method. Clients break. Any use of library code that actually looks at the return value is prone to this. API changes require code changes. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
