Hi, Not sure if it makes sense, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Why are type hints in a macro not passed to a body of code executed inside?
user=> (set! *warn-on-reflection* true) true user=> (def s "Hello world") #'user/s user=> (.length s) Reflection warning, NO_SOURCE_PATH:28 - reference to field length can't be resolved. 11 user=> (defmacro in-macro [[x y] & body] `(let [^String ~x ~y] ~...@body)) #'user/in-macro user=> (in-macro [x s] (.length x)) Reflection warning, NO_SOURCE_PATH:30 - reference to field length can't be resolved. 11 user=> (defmacro in-macro [[x y] & body] `(let [^String ~x (str ~y)] ~...@body)) #'user/in-macro user=> (in-macro [x s] (.length x)) 11 As you can see above, when I wrap ~y as (str ~y), it avoids reflection.
