Re: How get function name in body?
Well, it seems like it should be possible. At the end of the defn macro, metadata is attached to a function, so you can see the name with: ``` (meta #'my.ns/add) ``` And you could do this inside the function: ``` (defn add [a b] (let [name (:name (meta #'add))] (str a b name))) ``` But that can't be what you want. The thing is, the actual function body doesn't know that it's being bound to the symbol "add" and making it aware would seem to contravene a number of league bylaws. That is to say, the macro "defn" attaches the meta-information to the symbol #add, not to the code that follows. You could certainly make your own macro to make the bound variable name visible to the body of the code, but I'm not sure you can do that with the built-in defn. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.

Re: How get function name in body?
Consider that: (defn add [a b] (+ a b)) is expanded to (something like): (def add (fn [a b] (+ a b))) So the actual code that runs is an anonymous function, which is bound to the (global) var #'add -- the function itself has no name. dev=> (*macroexpand* '(*defn* *add* [a b] (*+* a b))) (def add (clojure.core/fn ([a b] (+ a b dev=> (*defn* *add* [a b] (*+* a b)) #'dev/add dev=> add #object[dev$add 0x72f91c91 "dev$add@72f91c91"] So the value of add is an object, with type dev$add, a class that implements a bunch of things including clojure.lang.IFn and java.lang.Runnable and java.util.concurrent.Callable etc. The "name" of function is hard to get to, inside a function because of that. One way to figure that out at runtime is to dig into the stack, which you can get at by creating an exception and inspecting it: be aware that this is an expensive operation! dev=> (*defn* *add* [a b] #_=> (*let* [frame (*first* (*:trace* (*Throwable->map* (*ex-info* *""* {}] #_=> (*println* (demunge (*name* (*first* frame #_=> (*+* a b))) #'dev/add dev=> (add 1 2) dev/add 3 dev=> demunge is what turns Clojure's generated classnames back into readable source names.
