Hello. I experienced non obvious behavior of "require namespace as alias" when using clojure.tools.namespace.repl/refresh. If I use aliased namespace then after changing source files and call to refresh I seem to have old values in that alias. If I use plain require all seem to work as expected, new definitions take effect after reload.
For example, in first case: (ns a (require [b :as b-alias])) (println b-alias/x) ; original value ; change sources of b or it's dependencies (clojure.tools.namespace.repl/refresh) (println b-alias/x) ; original value ; and also (println b/x) ; new value In second case: (ns a (require [b])) (println b/x) ; original value ; change sources of b or it's dependencies (clojure.tools.namespace.repl/refresh) (println b/x) ; new value Can anyone explain why require acts like this? Does it mean that alias is not just naming change but some data structure in memory? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
