Clojurians Log v2

anyone here using play-clj?

i’m adapting an example app that uses brute and play-clj (https://github.com/markmandel/brute-play-pong)

i noticed that if i upgraded the dependencies, some reflective calls fail

the existing app uses Clojure 1.6 and old versions of play-clj & libgdx

upgrading to Clojure 1.8 & latest play-clj and libgdx results in some interop calls failing

unless I type-hint everything

just trying to figure out if it’s a Clojure 1.8 change or somethign

Is it a play-clj problem, or a brute problem?

hey the man himself

no i highly doubt it’s a brute problem

it’s a (.draw font… etc call on BitmapFont

works fine in your example, fails after updating the deps

There isn't much to brute really 😃

i can make it work, but i have to type-hint everything and make the ints explicit floats

Send be a PR with updated deps if you get it working

not sure if it’s because there are more overloads of that method in libgdx 1.9.3 than there were in 1.0.0

Quite possible

Play-clj wrappers may take care of the type conversion

yeah i tried that there’s a (bitmap-font! font :draw ) form you can use

but internally it only type-hints the font

so call still fails

😞

i should probably check if it’s just specific to BitmapFont and it’s many draw() overloads

That seems very likely

yeah, you’re also using ShapeRenderer.rect() that has 5 overloads, and that’s not breaking even though it has no type-hints

From memory, that had different argument counts?

I wrote the code a while ago 😋

yeah i think the arg counts are all different

so maybe it’s the duplicate arities with different types that’s the issue

for BitmapFont

it has 2 4-arity draw() methods, differing only in the type of the 2nd arg

let me try just hint that

nope

have to type hint everything else it fails

even, weirdly, the BitmapFont arg itself, which is explicitly type-hinted inside the (bitmap-font!) macro
