It seems that meta updates done in stop don't work for state vars, and stop is not doing the conversion to strings.

https://github.com/juxt-forks/mount/tree/fix-stop-with-vars

There is also a workaround, use (stop (only #'my-state)). Only will transform vars to strings.

> stop states with (mount/stop #'my-state) and then start again, the swapped state is still being used. (!!) if you stop and start a state it would be started, yes. can you share a REPL’able example? i.e.

(defstate a …)
(defstate b …)
;;
(mount/stop #'dev/a)
...

(ns mount-test
  (:require [mount.core :as mount]))

(mount/defstate my-state
  :start (do (println "real start") 1)
  :stop (println "real stop"))

(defn swap-with-fake [states]
  (mount/swap-states states
    {#'my-state {:start (fn [] (do (println "fake start") 2))
                 :stop (fn [] (println "fake stop"))}}))

yep, “var vs string” makes sense the https://github.com/tolitius/mount/commit/2d050e9055418982c29ff284d84b60aa4ad6ceda should be in 0.1.17 thanks for the sample to clarify
