It's not clear to me what a default solution should be when one seqs over a cycle, other than continue on indefinitely. As Sean says, the "solution" is whatever fits your particular situation. That said, you can use (.getCanonicalPath dir) to obtain a unique string path for that directory. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
