"Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) _____________________________ From: Ravindra Jaju <ravindra.j...@gmail.com<mailto:ravindra.j...@gmail.com>> Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2017 01:51 Subject: Re: Don't Laugh - How to Get the Name of an Anonymous Function To: clojure <clojure@googlegroups.com<mailto:clojure@googlegroups.com>> It's a good start. You could next import clojure.lang.Compiler and call the static method demunge like so on the output "cool_func_BANG_" (Compiler/demunge "cool_func_BANG_") ; => "cool-func!"

[] (println "hi"))))) I have altered the name to `cool-func!` on purpose to show where it may break.

Obviously the name of the function is stored with the function. How can I get to it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
