API for java-utils - clojure-contrib v1.3 (in development)

by Stuart Halloway, Stephen C. Gilardi, Shawn Hoover, Perry Trolard, Stuart Sierra

clojure-contrib is now deprecated

clojure-contrib is no longer being developed or maintained.

Rather than a single, monolithic, contributions library, Clojure now has a set of separate libraries for each unit of functionality. The libraries are in the Clojure GitHub organization at https://github.com/clojure. API documentation of the libraries can be found at https://clojure.github.io.

If you're looking for a specific function or namespace from the old clojure-contrib, see "Where Did Clojure.Contrib Go".


Full namespace name: clojure.contrib.java-utils

Overview

A set of utilties for dealing with Java stuff like files and properties.

Design goals:

(1) Ease-of-use. These APIs should be convenient. Performance is secondary.

(2) Duck typing. I hate having to think about the difference between
    a string that names a file, and a File. Ditto for a ton of other
    wrapper classes in the Java world (URL, InternetAddress). With these
    APIs you should be able to think about domain equivalence, not type
    equivalence.

(3) No bossiness. I am not marking any of these functions as private
    the docstrings will tell you the intended usage but do what works for you.

Feedback welcome!

If something in this module violates the principle of least surprise, please
let me (Stu) and the Clojure community know via the mailing list.
