I need an implementation of the case macro. The original clojure implementation can’t be used since it is kind of using the Java case statement internally.

case macro
Usage: (case e & clauses)
I could try to build a macro on my own but it would be all clojure. Maybe there is even a way to use real js functionality.
Has anyone a function or macro for that?
UPDATE: case has since been added to ClojureScript. Though we cannot give the performance guarantees, the benefits for portability are more important.
case involves a guarantee that’s not possible in JavaScript – constant time dispatch on literals. Is there any reason the following doesn’t work for you?
