Mike, are you referring to this: http://groups.google.com/group/clojure/browse_thread/thread/b4704108d85693d0/84dd4b690b6d7afd?lnk=gst&q=alias#84dd4b690b6d7afd ?
Roger, I realize this invalidates your test, but if do this instead, the error goes away: (alias 'c 'coretest) (testing "test alias function" (is (= 1 (do (c/foo true) )))) As I understand it, the Clojure reader expects to be able to resolve namespace references as soon as it sees them. Since "alias" is a function, the "c" alias doesn't exist until sometime after the reader has already run. I think you will encounter a similar problem with the import macro. > I can't seem to find the explanation I once saw for this.
