Has a spec for extend-protocol etc ever been considered?
user=> (s/get-spec `extend-protocol)
nilClass/forName expression, which can go bad: https://clojure.atlassian.net/browse/CLJ-1381)
It seems in Clojure 1.12 there's no longer the need to write Class/forName for primitive arrays since we can write byte* etcborkdude 2024-02-13T10:04:30.034099Z
No interest I guess then

Hm… a quick search on Ask Clojure suggests the answer to your question is a solid “no”. > We do not plan to add specs for the functions in core. cf. https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/12851/full-specs-for-clojure-core-in-core-specs-alpha?show=12855#a12855

i don't think that's quite accurate, extend-protocol is a macro and there are plenty of specs for clojure.core macros

Perhaps @alexmiller just didn't catch this message

Put it on ask

Done https://ask.clojure.org/index.php/13723/spec-for-extend-protocol

Am I correct in thinking that the new Class/member syntax can’t be used to refer to fields?
cfleming 2024-02-12T22:39:02.515329Z
Previously it could be used for static fields.
Alex Miller (Clojure team) 2024-02-12T22:39:13.344989Z
still is for static fields
Alex Miller (Clojure team) 2024-02-12T22:39:34.644319Z
no change here
cfleming 2024-02-12T22:40:29.099259Z
Ok, but my question is really whether there are changes to allow MyClass/instanceField - I’m assuming not, but was just clarifying.
Alex Miller (Clojure team) 2024-02-12T22:40:52.092299Z
no
cfleming 2024-02-12T22:40:59.629399Z
Thanks.
2024-02-16T15:29:46.142199Z
it should be Class/method syntax. If we said Class/member somewhere please point that out
Alex Miller (Clojure team) 2024-02-16T18:59:53.143549Z
The ticket title said that, I’ve updated
