You can't do it in Java either. Any Java class that is not in the default package cannot access any class that is in the default package. The default package is an isolated world unto itself. As strictly a personal opinion, the so-called "default" package (more accurately referred to as the anonymous package) was a bad idea from the start. > Jim Randall Schulz --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
