Hi.
I'm just wondering if it's possible to create Spring managed beans backed by Clojure code (Clojure namespace I guess, would implement regular Java interface)? If so, the example would be appreciated.
Thanks, Dmitriy.

See this this as an example of clojure, spring, junit and swt integration.

No, this is not what I mean. I'm asking how to compile, configure a Clojure class as a regular Spring-managed bean which then becomes eligible for injection into other Spring-managed beans, etc. The example shows the other way around i.e. how to use Spring ApplicationContext from Clojure code.

Hello there,
I haven't tried that yet, but section 3.3 of Programming Clojure explains how to create class files with the :gen-class form. Use it with :implements and :extends, build a JAR from your classes and import them into your Spring project. That should - theoretically - do the trick.
I'd be very interested in any example code, too, by the way.

Yeah, that seems to be the way. I'd try it when I have a chance.
