A little more background info in case it helps: I've got two
gen-interfaces, and three typedefs. I want the typedefs in separate files
(to void editing confusion) but same namespace, so I have:
;; foo/core.clj
(ns foo.core...)
...
(load "bar/mytype")
;; foo/bar/mytype.clj
(in-ns 'foo.core)
...
(typedef MyType
foo.bar.IMyInterface
...)
;; foo/interfaces.clj (aot-compiled)
(gen-interface :name foo.bar.IMyInterface
:extends [clojure.lang.IFn
clojure.lang.IPersistentMap
...])
Then I use ns-tracker to handle reloading. Then the problem is that
ns-tracker that when I edit foo/mytype.clj, ns-tracker picks up the quote
in (in-ns 'foo.core) and throws
java.lang.Exception: Found lib name 'foo.core' containing period with
prefix 'quote'. lib names inside prefix lists must not contain periods
My workaround is:
(def mod-namespaces (ns-tracker [ ...blah blah ...]))
(doseq [ns-sym (mod-namespaces)]
(let [sym (if (symbol? ns-sym)
ns-sym
(last ns-sym))] ;; if foo/bar/mytype.clj is the changed
file, ns-sym is (quote foo.core), of type clojure.lang.Cons
(require sym :reload)))
Works great so far, as long as my typedefs specify an interface generated
by gen-interface.
Thanks,
Gregg
