In Common Lisp exceptions are handled in the contexts in which they occur, so if you handle the exception by stopping execution and presenting a REPL (which is the default) then the locals don't have to be "retrieved" -- they're just still where they were, and where the REPL is too. And there are functions that let you look at locals throughout the stack (graphically browsable in IDEs, but REPL-accessible in any event). I gather that one can't handle exceptions "in context" like this in Java... but I'm approaching this from the Lisp side and don't really know... I see some related discussions (e.g. in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=438125) but it's not clear to me what the bottom line is. If it *is* possible to get this kind of behavior in Clojure than that would be a beautiful thing. -Lee -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
