Hello,
As far as possible, the equivalent of a java anArray[anIndex] expression
will be of not using an index in the first place in Clojure (*).
In your example, I'm not sure there is a compelling reason for having strip
be a true java array. A clojure vector would probably be sufficient.
So AFAICT, I would write your "loop" as:
(defn with-gc* [gc f]
(try (f gc)
(finally (when gc (.dispose gc)))))
(defmacro with-gc [[name gc-expr] & body] `(with-gc* ~gc-expr (fn [~name]
~@body)))
(let [get-strip (fn [offset] (let [strip (.createCompatibleImage gc imWidth
height transparency)] (with-gc [gc (.createGraphics strip ....)] (.drawImage
gc) strip)))]
(into [] (map get-strip (map #(* imWidth) (range number)))))
Not tested, would probably place the fn on more than one line
(*): of course, for when you /really/ want to do that / can't possibly do
without that, you can , by using nth or get functions. Or by directly using
java arrays. Sometimes. When you really don't see how to avoid this.
