(definline call [arg] `(~arg)) user=> (defn foo [] (println "foo!")) #'user/foo user=> (foo) foo! nil user=> (call foo) foo! nil user=> (defn bar [] (println "bar!")) #'user/bar user=> (doall (map call [foo bar])) foo! bar! (nil nil) And since it's definlined, it should be no slower to (call foo) than to (foo) when not passing call to a higher-order function such as map, and if you do, it should be no slower than passing #(%). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
