I had previously assumed that the clojure repl effectively just did (eval (read-string input)). That doesn't seem to be the case eg:
user> [do (inc 1)] CompilerException java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resolve symbol: do in this context, compiling:(NO_SOURCE_PATH:1:1) user> (eval '[do (inc 1)]) 2 nil user> (load-string "[do (inc 1)]") 2 nil user> ^{:line 11, :column 20} [] [] nil user> (eval ^{:line 11, :column 20} []) ClassCastException java.lang.Long cannot be cast to java.lang.Integer clojure.lang.Compiler.eval (Compiler.java:6597) user> (load-string "^{:line 11, :column 20} []") ClassCastException java.lang.Long cannot be cast to java.lang.Integer clojure.lang.Compiler.eval (Compiler.java:6597) What can I do to eval a string in the same way that the repl does? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
