Transitive AOT Compilation

...

• Interop
  • To consume a Java API
    • Concrete derivation (gen-class)
    • Naming/packaging conventions
  • To expose an API to Java code
    • deftype/record/protocol/interface
  • Deployment environments
    • Special classloaders, e.g. OSGi, Eclipse
• Application delivery
  • Main method (gen-class)
    • Mitigated by "-m" option to clojure.main
  • Bytecode post-processing
    • Android/Dalvik
  • Faster startup
    • Only an issue in constrained environments like Android
  • Hide source code from consumers
• Vet reflection warnings
• Syntax check
  • Not necessary, but still a common use case

...

• Just some things
  • For the Interop case
  • Not currently supported
• Everything
  • For the "Application delivery" and , "Syntax check", and "reflection warnings" cases
  • Currently supported by clojure.core/compile
