Hi, Please note that a convention (but it's really just one convention) could also be to name file for partB : place_partB.clj (or even place_part_b.clj since in clojure camel case notation is not the preferred way to write things, hyphens and lower cases are -> but hyphens must be replaces by underscores in package/namespace names, and in file names).
Your solution is acceptable I think (having the load at the end of the root file). You could also consider this one: ==== place.clj ======= (ns whale.achi.model.place (:load "place/partA") (:load "place/partB")) ================== ==== place/partA.clj ======= (in-ns 'whale.achi.model.place) partA ================== ==== place/partB.clj ======= (in-ns 'whale.achi.model.place) partB ================== Or, to write it like it is done for clojure.core: ==== place.clj ======= (ns whale.achi.model.place (:load "place_part_a") (:load "place_part_b")) ================== ==== place_part_a.clj ======= (in-ns 'whale.achi.model.place) partA ================== ==== place_part_b.clj ======= (in-ns 'whale.achi.model.place) partB ================== HTH, -- Laurent 2009/4/24 billh04 <h...@tulane.edu>: > > I don't think I explained my need clearly. > > I try to rephrase it.
