(source)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.
