Hi
I'm new to Clojure but very keen to learn. I'm following Web
Development with Clojure (http://www.vijaykiran.com/2012/01/11/web-
application-development-with-clojure-part-1/) and came across the
following code:
(run-jetty #'routes {:port (or port 8080) :join? false}))
I know that #'routes is the same as (var routes) and that it is
passing the "object" rather than the actual value BUT I don't
understand why this is used. Specifically if I replace #'route with
route the code works fine. I've read somewhere this is something to do
with autoloading changes to code when developing for the web. Does
anyone have a simple explanaition for #' and why it is used here. If
you have some simple clojure code to illustrate its use I'd be really
grateful.
many thanks in advance for any help.
Dave
