Hi, I'm writing my first ClojureScript program. I defined a protocol for a query language which I wanted to extend to various data types, including keywords.
However keywords are strings when it comes to dispatch. Is this a bug, or by design? ClojureScript:cljs.user> (defprotocol Foo (-a [x] "sample")) nil ClojureScript:cljs.user> (extend-protocol Foo Keyword (-a [x] (print "keyword"))) #< function (x) { return cljs.core.print.call(null, "keyword"); } > ClojureScript:cljs.user> (-a :foo) "Error evaluating:" (-a :foo) :as "cljs.user._a.call(null,\"\\uFDD0'foo\");\n" org.mozilla.javascript.JavaScriptException: Error: No protocol method Foo.-a defined for type string: ?'foo (<cljs repl>#22) at <cljs repl>:22 (anonymous) at <cljs repl>:14 (_a) at <cljs repl>:7 (anonymous) at <cljs repl>:7 If I extend to js/String it works. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
