So, I have a macro that looks something like this:
(defmacro test-failure
[& forms]
`(handler-case :type
~@forms
(~'handle :error/error
(println "error happened"))))
(My real macro is more complex, but this gives the idea.)
If I eval
(test-failure (println "test"))
I get:
=> Unable to resolve symbol: handle in this context
However, if I macroexpand-1 the thing, I get:
(macroexpand-1 '(test-failure (println "test")))
=> (clojure.contrib.condition/handler-case :type (println "test") (handle
:error/error (clojure.core/println "error happened")))
That is correct, and if I eval just that it works fine.
Here is an interesting thing: if I do this:
(macroexpand '(test-failure (println "test")))
I get
=> (try (println "test") (handle :error/error (clojure.core/println "error
happened")) (catch clojure.contrib.condition.Condition c__19__auto__
(clojure.core/binding [clojure.contrib.condition/*condition-object*
c__19__auto__ clojure.contrib.condition/*condition* (clojure.core/meta
c__19__auto__) clojure.contrib.condition/*selector* (:type (clojure.core/meta
c__19__auto__))] (clojure.core/cond :else (clojure.contrib.condition/raise)))))
It's expanded the handler-case part, but the "handle" is still there. That
seems wrong to me.
I've tried lots of different ways to specify handle besides ~'handle, but they
all seem to fail.
Any suggestions?
