Recently, I'm reading the source of
closql(https://github.com/emacscollective/closql), A Emacs sqlite database ORM
package. It use eieio object, and put a piece of advice on eieio-oref to
intercept the reading slot action.
Yuck! Can you explain why they need an advice on `eieio-oref`?
A right. That's one of the reasons I never bothered to get eieio
changed to better accommodate my extension; I expected a negative
reaction like this.
Note the "Yuck" is about putting an advice on such a core function.
Not about the functionality that it provides (over which I don't have
an opinion yet since I don't know what it does).
IOW the "yuck" is saying "please request an extension so it can be
better accomodated" ;-)
Okay understood. I guess I was feeling a bit insecure about having
written a ORMish thing in first place, and was a bit over sensitive
because of that. ;D
