ClojureScript - why is javascript object array and not a map?
Note the following code that works: (defn ^:export displayPlain [id] (let [h (.getElementById window/document id) txt (aget h innerText)] (window/alert (str plain txt)) (aset h innerText here I am!))) Here, javascript object h is treated as array, and I was able to get and set its value (since it is mutable). Note that the following code doesn't work, since h is not a map, and thus we can't access its properties neither as keywords nor as names. (defn ^:export displayPlain2 [id] (let [h (.getElementById window/document id) ;; txt (get h innerText) txt (:innerText h)] (window/alert (str plain txt This makes dealing with js objects a bit mor verbose than clojure maps. It would be good if Clojure maps and JS object would be interchangeable from ClojureScript code. Would it make sense to open a bug/feature for this? I know that this is doable using closure library, but it would be nice if it could be easily doable using plain objects. (defn ^:export display [id] (let [h (dom/getElement id) txt (dom/getTextContent h)] (window/alert (str gdom txt Regards, Marko -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.
