The problem - in Clojure code using try/catch - is that you don't know whether the real exception will be wrapped or not (because you may be calling thru some intermediate layer that may or may not do reflection) therefore you cannot usefully catch a given exception in Clojure: you will _always_ have to catch both the intended exception *and* catch ClojureRTException and unroll it yourself with the same code in both branches of logic. That's _horrible_. try/catch should do the unrolling for you - esp. if we introduce ClojureRTE as a wrap-only exception so it won't be confused with a regular RTE. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
