So I'm finding myself writing macros that look like this
(defmacro set-from-map [objform valmapform & set-pairs]
(let [obj (gensym)
valmap (gensym)]
`(let [~obj ~objform
~valmap ~valmapform]
(other stuff happens here))))
Those top two lets are basically just letting me make obj and valmap strict -- making them evaluate immediately instead of *pasting their code* wherever my macro might use them. I'm seeing this pattern a lot, and of course, Patterns Are Evil. Can anyone see an easy way to eradicate it?
