  • I don't like that create-record is public in core. Change its name? Throw in another namespace?

richhickey said: how about record-implementation-detail-multimethod?

Inside emit-record-factory-method, how about:

  • using :keys destructuring for fields
  • no need for apply on dissoc - it takes multiple keys

Also, you might want to make record itself a macro, so you can flow metadata to the created record:

^{:my "meta"}(record ::Foo :a 1 :b 2)

This will be useful since this will likely become at least the print-dup form for records

stu said: I was thinking that record might often get apply-ed. Do we need a function and a macro?

Old ticket. Goal was accomplished via factory fns and literals.
