#+title: Clojure bugs
I bisected this to [[https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=6efb073463481ee572eb3bb1155cc3b0d6987df6][6efb073463481ee572eb3bb1155cc3b0d6987df6]]. I've only tested this on =cider=, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

* Bug 1: Different namespaces in the same document don't work well
Say I have the following structure:

** Util
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args:clojure: :exports both :session *clojure-util*
:END:

It seems ~(ns example.util)~ isn't run properly: =sum= gets added to the default namespace the first time it's run. The second time it's run, it does work. In general, a block with a ~(ns)~ call needs to be run twice, it seems. To show this behaviour, I've added =:results value append= to the block below.

#+begin_src clojure :results value append
  (ns example.util)
  (defn sum [vec]
    (reduce + vec))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: Please reevaluate when nREPL is connected
: #'user/sum
: #'example.util/sum

This has the result that if I execute the above block only once, other functions cannot use =util/sum=; see the code blocks below. If the REPL is restarted, it needs to be run twice again.

To show that you need to run the above block twice, see the output of the block below. I executed it once after the /first/ time the previous was run (and =sum= was defined in the =user= namespace), and once after the /second/ time.
#+begin_src clojure :results value append
  (sum (range 10))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: class clojure.lang.Compiler$CompilerException
: 45

** Program
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args:clojure: :exports both :session *clojure-01*
:END:

This code block always errors:
#+begin_src clojure
  (ns example.program
    (:require [example.util :as util]))

  (util/sum (range 10))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: class clojure.lang.Compiler$CompilerException

* Bug 2: When tangling, code blocks can't see previously defined vars
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args:clojure: :tangle tangled.clj :session *clojure-tangle* :results none
:END:

This does not occur with =:results output=, since in that case =ob-clojure= keeps the body unchanged. If we use the default, however, each code block is individually wrapped in a =prn= call, and all variables defined are limited to the scope of the org source block..

If we first define some function =sum=,
#+begin_src clojure
  (ns example.tangle)

  (defn sum [xs] (reduce + xs))
#+end_src

We cannot use it in later code blocks. Well, when executing this from Org mode or when exporting, things go well. However, when this file gets tangled (here to =tangled.clj=), the following line fails (/Unable to resolve symbol: sum in this context/).
#+begin_src clojure
  (sum (range 10))
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: 45

#+begin_src sh :results output
  clj -M tangled.clj 2>&1
#+end_src

#+RESULTS:
: #'user/sum
: Syntax error compiling at (tangled.clj:5:46).
: Unable to resolve symbol: sum in this context
