When sending data as strings from clojurescript to clojure there will be issues if the source data contains certain unicode characters. (I think in range 128-255 - extended latin characters mostly).
This is because the goog string conversion used by pr-str encodes these characters as \x.. not \u00.. read-string will throw an exception if it encounters these characters. Should read-string support these character escapes? by way of work around, I am using: (require '[clojure.string :as s]) (defn unescape [string] (s/replace string #"\\x(..)" (fn [m] (str (char (Integer/parseInt (second m) 16)))))) (defn my-read-string [s] (read-string (unescape s))) Causes : https://github.com/ibdknox/pinot/issues/16 Cheers Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
