There should be no conflict between the var "str" (clojure.core/str) and the namespace alias "str" (clojure.string). Names for vars and namespaces never occur at the same place and cannot be mistaken for each other (by the compiler for sure, but I don't know about humans). Yout first attempt failed because of the quote. since 'x is equivalent to (quote x), this (ns test-csv (:require '[clojure.string :as str])) becomes (ns test-csv (:require (quote [clojure.string :as str]))) which is interpreted as the prefix syntax: (foo [b :as b] [c :as c]) is the same as [foo.b :as b] [foo.c :as c]. However, the stuff that comes first in the vector ("b" and "c") must not have a dot in it, hence the error message. // raek -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
