Yes. In Java you always compile ahead of time and cannot manipulate packages at runtime. Namespaces map in Clojure is populated when namespaces are loaded. In addition, Clojure code is compiled when it is loaded (unless you AOT the entire project). clojure.core/require is by far the most common way to trigger load. If you use fully-qualified class names of classes in type hints, there is no need to import them, just like it is in Java. -- MK http://github.com/michaelklishin http://twitter.com/michaelklishin -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
