you can use this or #C055UK572
really filing an issue should happen on the github repo ideally but you can discuss here if desired
since this chat goes away, the github issue is better for persistent discussion
@alexmiller: I can see two different approaches to this kind of guide: Type hinting in general (what it is, what it does, how, syntax etc.) or a more “pragmatic” guide specifically targeted at resolving reflection warnings (how to check for reflection, how to decide if its worth resolving, how to use javadocs to find the correct type, how to type hint arrays and primitives etc.). Not sure which approach is preferrable
@jonas: if you plan on writing a guide on type hints, I offer myself as additional reviewer
@bronsa: thanks I like these new http://clojure.org guides and would like to contribute somehow. If I were to write something on this topic I would prefer the second idea (focusing on resolving reflection warnings) and I would definitely need review help!
I think the guides work best when they are oriented around how to do things, so I agree with the latter
it may also be useful to have more of the former on the java_interop page
I keep forgetting to @jonas sorry
@alexmiller: reading through that page Note that type hints are not needed for static members (or their return values!) as the compiler always has the type for statics
dunno, that pre-dates me working on it
please do
@alexmiller: great! I will try to write something over the weekend and see how far I get
