http://dev.clojure.org/jira This file is an XML representation of an issue en-us 4.4 649 25-07-2011 http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-873 Clojure <p>The attached patch gives the programmer the option of referring to the division function in namespaces other than just clojure.core. For example,</p> <p>(ns foo<br/> (:require <span class="error">&#91;cljs.core :as core&#93;</span>))<br/> (apply core// '(1 2 3))</p> <p>The above lines do not compile without this patch.</p> CLJ-873

Allow the function / to be referred to in namespaces other than clojure.core

Enhancement Minor Open Unresolved Unassigned Chris Gray Thu, 10 Nov 2011 09:48:56 -0600 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 10:04:21 -0500 Release 1.1 Release 1.2 Release 1.3 Release 1.4 Release 1.6 7 6 <p>I have signed the CA and it is in the mail. </p> <p>My CA has now been applied. This patch is quite simple &#8211; can someone have a look at it please?</p> <p>FYI, I have run into this in actual code as well (implementing a query language function library). </p> <p>clj-873-namespace-divides-patch.txt is same as Chris's, just updated to apply cleanly to latest master as of Feb 24, 2012.</p> <p>The test he added does fail without the code fix, and passes with it. He is now on the list of contributors.</p> <p>A short further discussion of this patch appeared here: <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/clojure-dev/browse_thread/thread/f095980802a82747/b723726c77c1ec64">http://groups.google.com/group/clojure-dev/browse_thread/thread/f095980802a82747/b723726c77c1ec64</a></p> <p>Also, I assume this bug is what is referred to in Clojurescript's core.cljs, where it says ";; FIXME: waiting on cljs.core//"</p> <p>Thanks all. It is nice to have supporting real-world stories such as Alex's in the comments.</p> <p>I should have added a comment here a while back if it would have helped, but David Nolen's <a href="http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-930" title="cljs.core// does not work in ClojureScript"><del>CLJ-930</del></a> was closed as a duplicate of this one.</p> <p>This also affects a two of my libraries: 1) CSS generation library I'm working on, which wants to be able to do division with pixels and other units. 2) Factjor which defines binary math operators against a stack.</p> Approval Ok Global Rank Patch Code and Test
