clojure.reflect - Clojure v1.12.1 API documentation

API for clojure.reflect -

Full namespace name:

clojure.reflect Overview
Reflection on Host Types
Alpha - subject to change.

Two main entry points: 

* type-reflect reflects on something that implements TypeReference.
* reflect (for REPL use) reflects on the class of an instance, or
  on a class if passed a class

Key features:

* Exposes the read side of reflection as pure data. Reflecting
  on a type returns a map with keys :bases, :flags, and :members.

* Canonicalizes class names as Clojure symbols. Types can extend
  to the TypeReference protocol to indicate that they can be
  unambiguously resolved as a type name. The canonical format
  requires one non-Java-ish convention: array brackets are <>
  instead of [] so they can be part of a Clojure symbol.

* Pluggable Reflectors for different implementations. The default
  JavaReflector is good when you have a class in hand, or use
  the AsmReflector for "hands off" reflection without forcing
  classes to load.

Platform implementers must:

* Create an implementation of Reflector.
* Create one or more implementations of TypeReference.
* def default-reflector to be an instance that satisfies Reflector.
Added in Clojure version 1.3

Protocols
ClassResolverProtocol

Known implementations:

clojure.lang.Fn, java.lang.ClassLoader
resolve-classfunction
Usage: (resolve-class this name)
Given a class name, return that typeref's class bytes as an InputStream.
Source

ReflectorProtocol
Protocol for reflection implementers.

Known implementations:

AsmReflector, JavaReflector
do-reflectfunction
Usage: (do-reflect reflector typeref)

Source

TypeReferenceProtocol
A TypeReference can be unambiguously converted to a type name on
the host platform.

All typerefs are normalized into symbols. If you need to
normalize a typeref yourself, call typesym.

Known implementations:

clojure.asm.Type, clojure.lang.Symbol, java.lang.Class
typenamefunction
Usage: (typename o)
Returns Java name as returned by ASM getClassName, e.g. byte[], java.lang.String[]

reflectfunction
Usage: (reflect obj & options)
Alpha - subject to change.
Reflect on the type of obj (or obj itself if obj is a class).
Return value and options are the same as for type-reflect. 
Added in Clojure version 1.3
Source
type-reflectfunction
Usage: (type-reflect typeref & options)
Alpha - subject to change.
 Reflect on a typeref, returning a map with :bases, :flags, and
:members. In the discussion below, names are always Clojure symbols.

 :bases            a set of names of the type's bases
 :flags            a set of keywords naming the boolean attributes
                   of the type.
 :members          a set of the type's members. Each member is a map
                   and can be a constructor, method, or field.

 Keys common to all members:
 :name             name of the type 
 :declaring-class  name of the declarer
 :flags            keyword naming boolean attributes of the member

 Keys specific to constructors:
 :parameter-types  vector of parameter type names
 :exception-types  vector of exception type names

 Key specific to methods:
 :parameter-types  vector of parameter type names
 :exception-types  vector of exception type names
 :return-type      return type name

 Keys specific to fields:
 :type             type name

 Options:

   :ancestors     in addition to the keys described above, also
                  include an :ancestors key with the entire set of
                  ancestors, and add all ancestor members to
                  :members.
   :reflector     implementation to use. Defaults to JavaReflector,
                  AsmReflector is also an option.
