Well, they're buggy. http://www.assembla.com/spaces/clojure/search?q=clojure.xml+emit On issue 412 Stuart Halloway explains: If a var is (a) public (b) has a docstring and (c) has :added metadata, then the Clojure team is committed to supporting it. These vars don't meet the criteria. In the context of a broader overhaul of XML support these might become official APIs. On issue 410 Chris Houser suggests: Please consider the solution provided by clojure.contrib.lazy-xml/emit which uses javax.xml.transform classes to fix not only these bugs (#410 and #408) but also support indent, xml-declaration, and encoding options. // ben -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
