Re: RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-19 Thread Mikera
This is sensible because:

java.lang.* is important for interop (classes like Object,String etc.) and 
is pretty much guaranteed to retain backwards compatibility for the 
foreseeable future. It's pretty much the JVM equivalent of the clojure.core 
namespace.

clojure.lang.* has a lot of classes / interfaces that should really be 
considered as implementation details. Hence we shouldn't encourage people 
to rely on them in regular Clojure code.

This raises a question I've wondered about for a while: I believe
Clojure makes java.lang.* available by default but not clojure.lang.*
- what is the logic behind that? (I'm not questioning whether it's
right or wrong, just curious as to why...)

Thanx,

The command-line eval feature is broken under -Dclojure.read.eval=unknown

Your additional points make more evident the need to put some final effort 
on the design of ExceptionInfo - leaving it "alpha" would be pretty 
unfortunate.

Re: RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-18 Thread Dave Sann
I don't expect this to go into 1.5.

But the point raised by vemv is a good one.

Clojurescript makes ExceptionInfo available by default. If this were also 
the case in clojure - it would help with portable code. Specifically 
catching ExceptionInfo. (longer comments on the thread referenced 
previously).

timely comment.

you can create and throw it but catching it requires the imported type. 
(not withstanding catching the generic Exception on the JVM).

see the link for suggestion/discussion on making this more "uniform" for

Re: RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-17 Thread vemv
ah nice, never realised that, thank you. still it'd be somewhat more 
consistent to import ExceptionInfo:

(throw (Exception.))
(throw (IndexOutOfBoundsException.))
(throw (IllegalArgumentException.))
;; ...there's quite clearly a pattern here, which many are accustomed to
(throw (ex-info "" {})) ;; ex-info (however more pleasant is it to type) 
breaks that pattern

OTOH, I see ex-info is "alpha, subject to change" so relying on Java 
constructors may not be the right choice right now.

Re: RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-17 Thread Baishampayan Ghose
You can create an ExceptionInfo instance easily by using the core fn
`ex-info`. So something like ... (throw (ex-info {:foo "bar"})) works
fine. ~BG

Couldn't clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo be imported by default? That'd surely 
help making ExceptionInfo the idiomatic exception to be thrown.

Re: RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-15 Thread Andy Fingerhut
Eric:

1 was a result of a change made by choice:


https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/changes.md#210-set-and-map-constructor-functions-allow-duplicates

The ticket linked there has a link to a design page on it, which in turn has a 
link to an earlier discussion thread on the Clojure group about it.

2. I'm not sure about this, but I think this was a change for ticket CLJ-157:

http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-157

Given your description of it, I found it a bit funny that I categorized that 
one under "Improved error messages" in the changes file.  Probably time to file 
a new ticket related to improving the issues you point out.

Re: RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-15 Thread Eric Arthen
Stu,

I changed my code from 1.4.0 to 1.5.0 RC 16 (about 70 source files) and ran 
into two small things.They are probably not bugs but they confused me.

I have not been following 1.5 development in detail, so these are probably 
not at all new. So far everything else seems ok, which is great.

1. array-map used to throw an illegal argument exception on duplicate keys, 
but now it succeeds and uses the last value in the array. This change seems 
okay, I just had a case that used the old behavior and it took a bit to 
realize what happened.
  
(array-map :a 1 :a 2 :b 0 :a 3 :b 1)
{:a 3, :b 1}


2. The defn macro used to be permissive when it had nothing but the 
function name, but now it complains. That seems like an improvement, but 
the problem is that it gives no information of what source file or line the 
problem is at so it took me a while to find it.

I was defining a mocked out function, so I just had this: (defn x)

That was okay in 1.4.0, but now it returns the error below. I just replaced 
it by (def x), so it was easy to fix once I saw it.

It seems to me macro errors never tell about where in the source they 
happen, so I assume that must be very hard to fix and that we're still 
stuck with this in 1.5.0. I must admit that trying to debug macro issues 
(esp. in the 'ns' macro) are almost the only time I've found myself cursing 
at clojure itself. Most of the time it is a joy.

My code using tons of protocols, some deftypes, and the new reducers
here and there still compiles, runs, and all tests pass.  That said,
I've always used the most bleeding-edge 1.5 alphas, betas, RCs, so that
actually means only that there's no breakage to features I use in a very
recent commit while there might still be compatibitily issues when
coming from 1.4.

Bye,
Tassilo

RC 16: Last chance to test against Clojure 1.5 before it ships

2013-02-13 Thread Stuart Halloway
If you care about Clojure 1.5 compatibility for your codebase, please test
it against RC 16 as soon as possible.

You can get the source and build it yourself from [1], or wait for Maven
Central [2] to pick up the CI build, which usually takes a few hours.

Thanks!
