locals are not shared between threads (this is guaranteed) so immutability is less important for them. Transients were introduced in part for the same reason. Values are still immutable, but "refs" in your case don't have any concurrency semantics. For locals, that's fine. It's not a great style but if you occasionally do it in small functions, it's not a big deal. Using this style all the time will make your code easier to follow. -- MK http://github.com/michaelklishin http://twitter.com/michaelklishin -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
