Clojurians Log v2

running clj -T:build compile yields:

Unexpected error (ClassNotFoundException) macroexpanding gen-class at (com/scarytom/tbs/java_interop.clj:5:1).
java.lang.BeatBox

reading that back, it looks like it has the wrong package for BeatBox... that gives me a thread to pull on

com.scarytom.tbs.BeatBox is what i would expect to look for, not java.lang.BeatBox

(:import [com.scarytom.tbs BeatBox]) should be (:import com.scarytom.tbs.BeatBox)

thanks

did that work?

Sorry. I got called away. I'll try it out momentarily

no, your change doesn't work -- the space is correct for a java import. The problem is that gen-class needs a fully qualified type for the return type of the makeBeatBox fn. I didn't know this.

I've checked in a working version, so you can see what I did.

thanks again for looking at this

You need to add the output "target/java-classes" where the compiled classfiles are written to the classpath of the clojure compile step

I would consider using them same directory for the output of both steps, which will solve it because the output of the clojure compile goes on the classpath anyway

thanks @hiredman -- I had already done that (`target/java-classes` is specified as a path in deps.edn). I wasn't aware that the output of the clojure compile is on the classpath for the clojure compile... that seems somewhat circular.

I suspect compile-clj doesn't use paths from deps.edn

curious @hiredman, as my sample project is compiling fine despite the clojure depending on a Java interface.

The basis is also passed to java-command, so it must merge stuff from there with the cp entry
