A little off topic, but as someone who has occasionally used Clojure since Rich released a beta version (on many professional gigs, and to support examples in my Clojure AI book), I used to make such a mistake by writing wrappers in Clojure for Java libraries I used.
A while back someone set me straight, and I no longer do that. So much better to call Java directly. Seeing the Glojure/Go interop examples reminded me of this.
- Capricorn2481 2y agoWhat's the practical difference? Aren't you doing the same java interop in your app that you would be doing in your wrapper?
