Hello, After thinking twice about it, ns does 2 special things for clojure.core today: 1. if no mention of clojure.core (indirectly via refer-clojure), consider that clojure.core must entirely be 'use d in the namespace 2. if refer-clojure is used, bypass 1. and do whatever is in refer-clojure
what about getting rid of refer-clojure in 'ns (or probably deprecating it). 1. if no mention of clojure.core (via require or use), consider that clojure.core must entirely be 'use d in the namespace 2. if clojure.core is 'use d or 'refer ed, bypass 1. Bonus for the user: * one less special case to handle (no need to remember refer-clojure) * same suppleness as with refer-clojure, with the extra-bonus of being able to requiring clojure.core (think of namespaces dedicated to dsls where you will want to provide only certain clojure.core vars to dsl users, and/or make it clear that the user is not using dsl "primitives" but clojure "primitives" by requiring clojure.core :as core etc.) What do you think about that ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
