I need to verify if an object implements a protocol. Looking at the source code, I noticed that protocol objects act as a map, and has the key :impls. >From this is a map I can look up a class to see if there are functions. The resulting code is:
(defn implements? [protocol obj] (boolean ((:impls protocol) (class obj)))) The problem with this is this relies on implementation details. I would like to do this safely. I noticed that in clojure.core there is a private function implements?. This appears to do what I want. Is it possible to make this public? What is the motivation for keeping it private? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
