Hi everyone,
it appears that eval works differently when used inside a future. The
following example REPL session shows what I mean:
user> (clojure-version)
"1.2.0-master-SNAPSHOT"
user> (defn my-inc [x] (+ x 1))
#'user/my-inc
user> (eval '(my-inc 1))
2
user> (future (eval '(my-inc 1)))
#<core$future_call$reify__5496@18c92d9: :pending>
user> (deref *1)
java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: my-inc in this context
(NO_SOURCE_FILE:1)
[Thrown class java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException]
I found this rather strange. Does anyone know why this happens and
whether it is actually intended? Is it a bug or a feature ;-).
Best,
Nils
