closer-mop
A compatibility layer that rectifies missing or incorrect CLOS MOP features across many Common Lisp implementations.
What is closer-mop?
Closer to MOP is a compatibility layer for Common Lisp that fixes missing or incorrect features in the CLOS Metaobject Protocol (MOP) across multiple Common Lisp implementations. It ensures that MOP-dependent code behaves consistently and portably, regardless of the underlying Lisp environment. The project addresses implementation-specific quirks and gaps in MOP support, providing a unified interface for metaobject programming.
Common Lisp developers who write metaobject-dependent code, library authors needing portable MOP features across implementations, and projects relying on advanced CLOS capabilities like custom metaclasses or generic function protocols.
Developers choose Closer to MOP because it eliminates the headache of MOP incompatibilities across Common Lisp implementations, offering a single, reliable layer for writing portable metaobject code. Its design balances performance by using native metaclasses where possible while providing replacement classes for subclassing and advanced MOP features.
Overview
Closer to MOP is a compatibility layer that rectifies many of the absent or incorrect CLOS MOP features across a broad range of Common Lisp implementations.
