A macro emits a form for the compiler to compile. And it understands its inputs as forms -- unevaluated forms.
- Your plus-two emits a list with + in function position. - foo, when it is computing the form to emit, applies + to 2 and some form x. So 5 works but u does not, even after (def u 10), because the macro receives u as a form and not the value u was bound to. - bar, when it is computing the form to emit, does as you say; it throws away the '+ symbol and the 2, emitting the form given by x. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
