David, not a problem! I was trying to put together a patch, but stumbled on this one issue, and figured the clojure list might be able to help out with the more general question, here.
Exact steps: 1. Open textmate project 2. run "cake repl" at a terminal, inside the project directory 3. Navigate to, say, test/namespace.clj, and press Shift-Command-L to load the file. "Loading Finished!" should pop up. 4. In the terminal, run (in-ns 'test.namespace). This gets me into the namespace, and gives me access to all current definitions... say, (def test-string "test!") Now, if I change that line to (def test-string "test again!"), reload the file, and type test-string into the repl, I see "test again!". So, changing a currently defined var "catches". But! If I change the line to (def test-string2 "test!"), load the file, and type test-string2 at the repl, I get an error noting that the var isn't bound. After running (in-ns 'test.namespace) again, test-string2 returns "test!". The textmate-clojure code uses "cake run" to call "load-file" on the current active file in textmate, as you of course know. The problem seems to be that load-file isn't making new defs available to the current repl, even though it can successfully update currently bounds defs. I'm looking for a way to write a patch that forces (in-ns (ns-name *ns*)) to run inside the current repl, whenever the user presses shift-command-L, getting around this issue. (I've also found that (require 'test.playground :reload) and (require 'test.playground :reload-all) have no effect. Only the in-ns call works.) Sorry about the length, here! The issue applies without textmate-clojure in the loop -- substitute a call to load-file for the shift-command-L business.
