Compiling Clojure?

Question

I\'m feeling slightly silly here, but I can\'t get Clojure Hello World to compile.

Directory structure:

hello-world/
  clojure-1.1.0.jar
  build/
            


        

Answer 1

To run clojure file

clojure filename.clj

Answer 2

Why you don't use Leiningen? It's much easier to use it, than compile code manually. You can use my article about it as introduction...

Answer 3

Got it, there's a fourth requirement:

• *compile-path* is resolved relative to the JVMs working directory, normally the directory where java is started. Or by REPL: (System/getProperty "user.dir"),

So this works:

user=> (set! *compile-path* "build/classes")     
"build/classes"
user=> (compile 'test.hello)
test.hello
