Clojure - 重置!原子导致堆栈溢出

标签: clojure stack overflow reset

我正在学习clojure,只是玩原子和参考。这是一个简单的树实现,但它在执行add-child方法时导致堆栈溢出:

(ns mytree)

(defprotocol PNode
  (add-child [this parent] "add 'this' node to the parent"))

(defrecord Node [id parent name children]
  PNode
  (add-child [this p]
     (println "adding this to children of parent")       
     (dosync
      (alter (:children p) conj this))

     ;following causes a stack overflow -why?
;        (println "reseting parent of this")
;        (reset! parent p)

     ))

(defn create-node [id name]
  (Node. id (atom nil) name (ref ())))

以下是REPL的示例会话:

>mytree> (def root (create-node 1 "CEO"))
>#'mytree/root
>mytree> (def child (create-node 2 "VP1"))
>#'mytree/child
>mytree> (add-child child root)

>adding this to children of parent

>(#:mytree.Node{:id 2, :parent #<Atom@4dffa9d: nil>, :name "VP1", :children #<Ref@cbe5beb:      ()>})

>mytree> root
>#:mytree.Node{:id 1, :parent #<Atom@44896098: nil>, :name "CEO", :children #<Ref@2a75733a: >(#:mytree.Node{:id 2, :parent #<Atom@4dffa9d: nil>, :name "VP1", :children #<Ref@cbe5beb: ()>})>}
>mytree> (def child2 (create-node 3 "VP2"))
>#'mytree/child2

resetting parent to child2 works
>mytree> (reset! (:parent child) child2)
>#:mytree.Node{:id 3, :parent #<Atom@43c32b82: nil>, :name "VP2", :children #<Ref@425d868f: ()>}

but resetting parent to root causes stack overflow - why??
>mytree> (reset! (:parent child) root)
>; Evaluation aborted.

如上所示,将child的parent重置为child2可正常工作,但将其重置为root会导致堆栈溢出。你能帮我理解为什么吗?

答案 0 :(得分:12)

实际上并不是reset!,而是REPL试图打印(无限)嵌套值。

试试这个:

(set! *print-level* 10)

这将限制分层对象的递归打印。
