Commented: Sub-optimal coding technique in clojure.tools.analyzer.utils ?

It is an alternative, but implementing a new core function common to multiple platforms is going to take a lot longer.

`Ambiguous method signature for method: close` thrown where clojure.core wouldn't

Thu, 01 Apr 2021 17:15:51 +0000

The following code will throw an exception:

(ana.jvm/analyze '(reify
                    java.io.Closeable
                    (close [_])
                    example.foo/EventClient
                    (close [_])))
                    ;; => clojure.lang.ExceptionInfo: Ambiguous method signature for method: close

...where example.foo/EventClient is a a real, resolvable defprotocol that does in fact define a close [_] method.

Here is a reproducible patch that can be applied over https://github.com/clojure/tools.analyzer.jvm/commit/f00d92317307c3e9e326fd99d337292925dc9db1 :

Edited: Form emitting by cljs.analyzer

Wed, 05 Aug 2020 13:13:58 +0000

Hi!
I want to write a code to code compiler for both Clojure and ClojureScript.
So I need something like clojure.tools.analyzer.passes.js.emit-form/emit-form, but tools.analyzer.js is abandoned and cljs.analyzer can't emit clojure form from AST.

How can I write my code transformation in terms of AST with tools.analyzer.jvm and cljs.analyzer?
Should I use both cljs.analyzer and clojure.tools.analyzer.passes.js.emit-form/emit-form?

Can I use clojure.tools.analyzer.ast/walk with cljs.analyzer?

How to use passes in terms of tools.analyzer with cljs.analyzer? I think it's impossible.
