So, I am studying a piece of code from the web. I've dissected most of it and am in the process of re-factoring it.
What I don't understand is why one version works and the other doesn't. So for both: (ns gcse-results.core (:use [datomic.api :only [q db] :as d]) (:use quil.core)) This doesn't work: (defn make-column-schema [db-ident db-type] {:db/id #db/id[:db.part/db] :db/ident db-ident :db/valueType db-type :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one :db.install/_attribute :db.part/db}) Each call to: (make-column-schema :results/subject :db.type/string) The value of #db/id[:db.part/db] is the same. And this works: (defn make-column-schema [db-id db-ident db-type] {:db/id db-id :db/ident db-ident :db/valueType db-type :db/cardinality :db.cardinality/one :db.install/_attribute :db.part/db}) Each call to: (make-column-schema #db/id[:db.part/db] :results/subject :db.type/string) The value of #db/id[:db.part/db] is the different, as expected. Now I thought that I understood #db/id[:db.part/db] (call to a Java constructor) but obviously my understanding is flawed as I would expect both of these functions to produce the same thing, but they don't so there's obviously some gap in my understanding.
