:::::: If you have an idea, how about posting a new task along that line? Then we might better understand the domain of tasks about "extending the language" --[[User:Abu|Abu]] 11:50, 28 August 2010 (UTC)
Some of the solutions that use macros (Clojure, Common Lisp, Scheme, other?) result in code where the second condition is expanded twice, and thus partially defy the purpose of the new language construct (see the task description: "the code generated by the compiler might be unnecessarily large"). Better solutions might involve direct function calls instead of macros, or variables to keep temporary results. --[[User:Abu|Abu]] 09:15, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
== Java is both omitted and included? ==
Pardon me as I don't understand how the wiki works 100%, but I've noticed there is a Java entry ''and'' it's included at the bottom of the article as <nowiki>{{omit from|Java}}</nowiki>. Is this a minor oversight?

: The most likely explanation is that at some point in the past, someone decided that the task wasn't possible/feasible in Java, and marked it with an "omit" tag. Then at some later point, someone else added an entry for Java, didn't notice the omit tag (or didn't care about the omit tag) so didn't remove it. Since it obviously has been implemented in Java, the omit tag should probably be removed. I shall do so. Thanks for noticing and bringing it to attention. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 15:04, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
