Re: how to launch repl and switch to specific namespace programmatically

[stone]

seems that the repl start up namespace is hard coded in RT:

https://github.com/clojure/clojure/blob/master/src/jvm/clojure/lang/RT.java#L437

static void doInit() throws ClassNotFoundException, IOException{
	load("clojure/core");

	Var.pushThreadBindings(
			RT.mapUniqueKeys(CURRENT_NS, CURRENT_NS.deref(),
			       WARN_ON_REFLECTION, WARN_ON_REFLECTION.deref()
					,RT.UNCHECKED_MATH, RT.UNCHECKED_MATH.deref()));
	try {
		Symbol USER = Symbol.intern("user");
		Symbol CLOJURE = Symbol.intern("clojure.core");

		Var in_ns = var("clojure.core", "in-ns");
		Var refer = var("clojure.core", "refer");
		in_ns.invoke(USER);
		refer.invoke(CLOJURE);
		maybeLoadResourceScript("user.clj");
	}
	finally {
		Var.popThreadBindings();
	}
}

I tried the following way:

java -Xmx1G -cp $CLASSPATH clojure.main -i src/my-repl/repl.clj -r

where src/repl/repl.clj is :

(ns my-repl.repl) (def my-var "hi") (in-ns 'my-repl.repl) but after clojure repl launched, I am always in the default user namespace not 'my-repl.repl'. How to achieve this so I can use my-var directly after repl launching ? Thanks, Stone

The following code will start a repl in the my-repl.repl namespace:

(ns my-repl.repl

(:require [clojure.main]))

(def my-var "hi")

(clojure.main/repl)

So you'll be able to acces the vars defined in it.

my-repl.repl=> my-var

"hi"

Cheers,

Juan

I forgot to add the modified command line for this to work as described:

$ java -Xmx1G -cp $CLASSPATH clojure.main src/my-repl/repl.clj
