A problem has traped me for quite a while when I'm exploring Clojure. I try to generate a class by invoking the <code>compile</code> function in REPL on a Clojure script as below:
(ns mylib.DirLister (:gen-class)) (defn -listDir [this path] (->> path java.io.File. .listFiles (map #(.getName %)))) I saved this script to _e:/temp/clj/src/mylib/DirLister.clj_. The following session goes well when I specify the **relative paths** for the <code>-cp</code> option, i.e., classes are successfully generated in the classes path: e:\temp\clj>java -cp .\src;.\classes;d:/tools/clojure-1.4.0/clojure-1.4.0.jar clojure.main Clojure 1.4.0 user=> (compile 'mylib.DirLister) mylib.DirLister user=> But when I use **absolute paths**, there prompt a "No such file or directory" error: e:\>java -cp e:/temp/clj/src;e:/temp/clj/classes;d:/tools/clojure-1.4.0/clojure-1.4.0.jar clojure.main Clojure 1.4.0 user=> (compile 'mylib.DirLister) CompilerException java.io.IOException: No such file or directory, compiling:(mylib/DirLister.clj:1) user=> How come ? I mean why the absolute paths don't work but the relative paths do. I know I could go with leiningen. but since I'm studying Clojure, I want to understand the stuff underneath before adopting this full-featured tool. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
