Because inc is inlined, and thus isn't mentioned when your binding occurs. (defn inc "Returns a number one greater than num." {:inline (fn [x] `(. clojure.lang.Numbers (inc ~x)))} [x] (. clojure.lang.Numbers (inc x))) Try this: user=> (binding [inc (fn [y] (+ 2 y))] (apply inc [44])) 46 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
