> java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassCastException:
> clojure.lang.PersistentList cannot be cast to clojure.lang.Symbol
> (test.clj:0)

> To generate the error, evaluate the following code:

> (ns test)

> (defrecord TestRecord [afield bfield cfield]
>  (printc [_] (println cfield)))

> (deftype TestType [afield bfield cfield]
>  (printc [_] (println cfield)))

> The error I believe I should be getting is something like this:

> java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Can't define method not in
> interfaces: printc (test.clj:8)

> Which can be generated with the following code:

> (ns test)

> (defprotocol TestProtocol
>  ""
>  (printa [testtype] "")
>  (printb [testtype] ""))

> (defrecord TestRecord [afield bfield cfield]
>  TestProtocol
>    (printa [_] (println afield))
>    (printb [_] (println bfield))
>    (printc [_] (println cfield)))

> (deftype TestType [afield bfield cfield]
>  TestProtocol
>    (printa [_] (println afield))
>    (printb [_] (println bfield))
>    (printc [_] (println cfield)))
