[elephant-devel] Bug, omission, or desired behaviour?

[Alain Picard]

Hello all,

I've noticed that elephant blithely ignores type declarations on slots;
e.g. something like this:

(deftype position ()
  `(integer 1 99))


(defclass foo-object ()
  ((name          :type string
                  :index t
		  :reader  foo-name
                  :initarg :name)
   (position      :type     position
                  :accessor foo-position
                  :initform 1))
  (:metaclass persistent-metaclass))

Elephant will happily let me store 100 in the foo-object position slot.  

Cheers,
                Alain Picard
