I am trying to write a macro to rewrite something like this:
(set-props my-jframe :title "blah" :visible true)
Into calls to the setter methods. I finally settled on this:
(defmacro set-props [obj & props]
(let [prop-map (apply hash-map props)]
`(do
~(for [[key val] prop-map]
`(~(keyword-to-method key) ~obj ~val))
~obj)))
where keyword-to-method just converts :title into .setTitle.
The problem is that I also want to have helpers for swing objects like
frames that use this:
(defn frame [& props]
(let [f (javax.swing.JFrame.)]
(apply set-props f props)
f))
except of course this doesn't work because set-props is a macro so i
can't use apply. I tried doing this instead:
(defmacro set-props-unflat [obj props]
`(set-props ~obj [EMAIL PROTECTED]))
(defn frame [& props]
(let [f (javax.swing.JFrame.)]
(set-props-unflat f props)
f))
but this also doesn't work because the props in the set-props-unflat
call isn't evaluated so i'm just trying to splice in the symbol props.
how can i make this work?
