Hi, I have a Java project which uses Spring to wire together various services, and the only way I've managed to find to integrate Clojure services (without using gen-class) is to have something resembling the MethodInvokingFactoryBean, or to manually write a wrapper which calls out to Clojure. Since everything else is instantiated in Spring, it'd be a lot nicer to have this sort of thing all in one place than scattered around, and Spring has support for creating beans with dynamic languages, but Clojure isn't currently one of those supported!
I've got most of the way towards having a patch which works, however I'm not entirely sure about the approach. Spring doesn't let beans constructed this way have constructor-injection, only by using setters. For now, I've abused the name attribute on property to give the fully qualified name of a function which binds a var with the value of the 'property'. This isn't ideal, but I can't think of another way of approaching this without defining a load of types on the fly and giving setter methods for those (maybe somebody else can?). JIRA relating to the patch (with a quick explanation of why I've taken this approach): https://jira.spring.io/browse/SPR-11530 Dynamic language doc: http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/4.0.3.BUILD-SNAPSHOT/spring-framework-reference/htmlsingle/#dynamic-language Of particular interest in seeing quickly how it is used at present (since I doubt anybody else wants to go through the trouble of getting the whole thing set up in Eclipse..), may be.. https://github.com/Orkie/spring-framework/blob/SPR-11530/spring-context/src/test/java/org/springframework/scripting/clojure/clojureContext.xml https://github.com/Orkie/spring-framework/blob/SPR-11530/spring-context/src/test/java/org/springframework/scripting/clojure/Messenger.clj Any suggestions would be appreciated, Adan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
