I think you can use db-connection, something like: (let [conn (db-connection spec) meta (.getMetaData conn)] (doall (.getTables meta nil "schema" "%s" nil)) (.close conn))
Or what have you. I wrote a little macro `with-meta-data` that was something like that, with added try/catch/finally to make sure the conn got closed. Is `with-open` a possibility? (with-open [conn (db-connection spec)] …) Would that work? On Aug 14, 2013, at 8:02 PM, Kyle Cordes <kyle.cor...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello.
