You nailed it. It looks like each top-level form currently gets its own fresh DynamicClassLoader. (do (deftype C []) (def x1 (C.)) (deftype C [a]) (def x2 (C. 42))) (.getClassLoader (class x1)) ;=> #<DynamicClassLoader clojure.lang.DynamicClassLoader@3e5b38d7> (.getClassLoader (class x2)) ;=> #<DynamicClassLoader clojure.lang.DynamicClassLoader@727f3b8a> Note the numbers after the @s are different -- each got its own classloader. This is not exclusive to deftype of course: (do (def a #()) (def b #())) (.getClassLoader (class a)) ;=> #<DynamicClassLoader clojure.lang.DynamicClassLoader@638bd7f1> (.getClassLoader (class b)) ;=> #<DynamicClassLoader clojure.lang.DynamicClassLoader@581de498> --Chouser -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
