The “trick” I’ve adopted to get around this:

 

(def my-ns *ns*)

 

I stick that near the top of any file in which I want to refer to _that_ 
namespace (as opposed to whatever the _current_ value of *ns* is during 
evaluation, since it’s dynamic).

Take this code:

 

(ns dda.main

  (:gen-class))

 

(defn -main [] (prn (ns-name *ns*)))

 


If you bootstrap this through clojure.main, such as what lein does, it will 
print the namespace as "user". But if you bootsrap it through the generated 
java main class, it will return "clojure.core".

 

My intuition would have assumed it would be running under "dda.main" as the 
*ns*, or at least under "user", since that's a common convention.

 

I'm curious to know why "clojure.core"?
