I was playing around with https://clojure.org/reference/compilation#_gen_class_examples and I've noticed that with 1.10.0-beta5, I couldn't compile the example code until I'd created a classes directory. Is that expected behavior?

dominicm08:11:48

It is normal behaviour from my past testing on this. The output directory is supposed to already be in the classpath.

Does tools-deps have a story for compiling Java code that lives in the same repo?

danieroux12:11:38

Joined to ask this exact question. I have one measly .java file that I want to (:import), and i really don't want to make a jar just for that one file.

(No immediate use case, just curious)

jwhitlark09:11:08

I'm curious about that too.

dominicm09:11:24

I've done some work on this, but it would be the same level as clojure.core/compile I suspect. Riddler is a good option to look at I think

danieroux12:11:33

what is Riddler, where can I find it?

tools.deps is about building classpath, clj is about running Clojure. You can run javac from one of clj aliases if that's a single .java file.

Wow, digging through virgil's code answers a lot of questions.
