I think only code lists have the line and source metadata attached, so that's all that's available. The compiler can't attached such metadata to non-code vectors because, I think, that would potentially conflict with user's metadata. It can't put metadata on objects like Strings that don't support metadata, and it can't put metadata on symbols and keywords because those objects can appear in multiple places so there is no single source location. The compiler has the same limitations as your macro.
I take it you found the meta for code lists: user> (defmacro mac [col] `(throw (Exception. (str "mac<" ~^col ">")))) #'user/mac user> (mac (or false true)) ; Evaluation aborted. user> *e #<CompilerException java.lang.Exception: mac<{:line 2}> (NO_SOURCE_FILE:0)> -Mike --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
