I often find I need to do this when the mapping function depends on a dynamic context, like an open stream or an SQL connection. I'm not using side effects in this case, but I have to make sure that the sequence is completely realized before leaving the scope in which it was created. This issue has been mentioned before, but there doesn't seem to be a good general-purpose solution. -Stuart Sierra --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
