Best way to create a namespace at runtime from a web app

[Sarkis Karayan]

Hi everyone,

I am working on a web app that allows code and namespace creation at runtime, but I get an error when trying to create a namespace from a web process:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't change/establish root binding of: *ns* with set

This works when doing in a repl or single threaded process, but fails when doing from the web app or in a go block.

I want the new namespace to be visible to all future web processes without restarting the app.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Sarkis

Have you tried the aptly named create-ns?

I can't offer any advice on how to do this, but I am genuinely curious as to why one would need to create a new namespace as part of a web server.

Care to provide an example? :)

Thank you, I was doing everything but the obvious. :-)

My product integrates the code editor into the browser and allows live updates to the runtime. :-D
