If you can assign to it, it's mutable. What you're talking about is creating a mutable object, then making it immutable at some point (say, after it's first assigned to). Immutable object cycles are indeed possible if one permits this; Clojure doesn't, at least not for simple objects. -Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
