Hi guys, I am wondering why this does not work: (.containsKey {:one 1} :one) ;=> ClassCastException clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap cannot be cast to clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap
The map is a: (class {:one 1}) ;=> clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap And a PersistentArrayMap does have a containsKey method ( https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/jvm/clojure/lang/PersistentArrayMap.java#L95 ). I can even find the method: (filter #(= "containsKey" (.getName %)) (.getMethods (class {:one 1}))) ;=> (#<Method public boolean clojure.lang.PersistentArrayMap.containsKey(java.lang.Object)>) Should this not be a normal reflective method lookup, why do I get a ClassCastException? It does work if the map gets big enough: (.containsKey {1 1, 2 2, 3 3, 4 4, 5 5, 6 6, 7 7, 8 8, 9 9} 1) ;=> true But at this point its a different collection: (class {1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9 9}) ;=> clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap Cheers, Alf -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
