I am curious about something that Michael Drogalis did here: (defn- load-support [support-file] (let [support-ns (create-ns 'support-ns) support-text (slurp (.getPath support-file))] (binding [*ns* support-ns] (eval '(clojure.core/refer 'clojure.core)) (eval '(refer 'janus.support)) (load-string support-text))))
https://github.com/gga/janus/blob/master/src/janus/support.clj So, we create a namespace ex-nihilo, and then we "load-string" our supporting/contract code in that namespace. Is this being done mostly for hygiene? Or security? Am I correct if I say this is done because it might be a mess if we loaded the contents of that external file in our current namespace? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
