You're making method calls in the sample you posted. java.lang.String has a "length" method, but no method named "isEmpty". Here is (one version of) a page with docs for java.lang.String: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html You might also consider these Clojure functions: user=> (count "") 0 user=> (empty? "") true user=> --Steve --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
