You can get a lazy sequence of all the lines in all the files by
something like:
(for [file out-files
line (with-open [r (io/reader file)] (line-seq r))]
line)
If "StatusJSONImpl" is on a separate line, you can throw in a :when
clause to filter them out:
(for [file out-files
line (with-open [r (io/reader file)] (line-seq r))
:when (not= line "StatusJSONImpl")]
line)
If it's a line prefix, you can remove it in the body:
(for [file out-files
line (with-open [r (io/reader file)] (line-seq r))]
(string/replace line "StatusJSONImpl" ""))
This is all assuming io is an alias for clojure.java.io, string for
clojure.string, and that getting your files line by line is useful.
Re OutOfMemoryException: if all the allocated heap memory is really
not freeable, then there's nothing the JVM can do -- it's being asked
to allocate memory for a new object, and there's none available.
