Why hasn't Clojure provide any java.util.function interfaces integration? for language a that's suppose to "embrace the host" to have "ergonomic" access to the host libs because it itself lacks an ecosystem this seems weird.
- AlexCoventry 5y agoClojure precedes Java 8.
- Scarbutt 5y agoGP means why it hasn't kept up with fundamentals of the host language, Java 8 was released in 2014.
- jwhitlark 5y agoThis is actually one of my rare criticisms of Clojure. There's a patch, but there was apparently concern about perf. Personally, if I had to do a lot of interop like this, I'd pull it into a custom build, as it wasn't large. I've not kept up with it lately, though, as I haven't needed to do a lot with Kafka recently.
