I think this is a distinction without a difference since Strings are immutable and behave like a value with respect to equals and hashCode. I suspect the behavior may depend on whether two uses of a given string literal end up being compiled into the same class file or not. (Each class file has its own constant space where string literals occuring in that class are stored.) // Ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
