Damn.

Hm. You may be right. For instance, it looks like new always treats its arg as a classname, even if it's locally shadowed: user=> (new 3 11) IllegalArgumentException user=> (let [Integer 3] (new Integer 11)) 11 I'll look into this further. Is there documentation anywhere that lists *all* of the lowest-level (true, like fn* and unlike fn) special forms? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
