Yes, should work just like with regular functions.

The return type hint goes in a different place - before the protocol name instead of before the param vector

like this https://github.com/thheller/shadow-grove/blob/626c09e82ba2b4eeac2cf04eb31c1f4f6373d374/src/main/shadow/arborist/protocols.cljs#L6 for return type

Oh, huh. I saw such instances, but I thought it was the mistake that people make with regular functions. Are there any downsides in making it also accept the (supports? ^boolean [this next]) syntax in Clojure?

Ah, this is embarrassing but I think I put the hint before function name on normal functions on occasions

In that case you are hinting the var, which does still work (except for long or double primitive type hints)

Well, I learned something I guess 🙂

thanks

I think @U064X3EF3 mentioned that updating the change log for 1.11.2 was on his todo list but it hasn't happened yet?

Yeah, I’ll get it when we update for 1.12

Thanks, no worries. Just wanted to make sure that it wasn’t me. I’ll just browse the commits for now.

I think the only change between 1.11.1 and 1.11.2 is the fix for the CVE (which is listed in 1.12 Alpha 9 change log notes).

Thanks, @U04V70XH6.

That is correct

It was intended to be a very small and safe change for upgrade
