I think Clojure should provide more information when certain error conditions occur. Example:
(when-not (= (Integer. (:userid json)) (Integer. (:userid a-user))) NOTE: (:userid a-user) is always some sort of number. (:userid json) is always a String. After testing (Integer. (:userid a-user)) _sometimes_ fails with: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No matching ctor found for class java.lang.Integer In this specific case you might argue that I don't know how to compare two numbers in clojure. And that might be true:-) In any case, I would find it _really_ helpful to have the (class) of the arg that failed. I think that this is something that generally all people using Clojure would be thankful for at one time or another. In this case, having the (class) would tell me that the failed arg was java.lang.Long. I'd then know immediately the reason for the problem and the solution. Any reason why this does _not_ make sense? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
