Library can depend on an older version of itself?

2013-12-23 Thread Michael Bradley, Jr.
Is there a straightforward way to setup a Clojure library so that it can 
depend on an older version of itself?

I can think of a couple of ways to do this that seem clunky, but was 
wondering what approaches (if any) have worked well for other folks. 
Something involving pomegranate and clojure.tools.namespace?

I don't have any suggestions as to how this might be achieved, I'm afraid,
but I am very curious as to *why* you'd want to do this.

Re: Library can depend on an older version of itself?

2013-12-23 Thread Michael Bradley, Jr.
I’m writing a parser that will be easier to write with itself, but I want to be 
able to “freeze” an earlier version that’s passing all the tests (for features 
implemented so far) and which is implemented quite differently.  The older 
version can then be used as the basis for the next version, and that version in 
turn as the basis for the version after next, and so on.

Re: Library can depend on an older version of itself?

2013-12-23 Thread Robert Levy
Since it's just temporary, maybe create a temporary namespace hierarchy
with the old version of the compiler. This would be a terrible sin if you
intended for that code to stick around but if you promise you will throw
away the older version once you don't need it anymore...
