Most likely fixed by some of the recent changes to data literal readers. </p> <p>Marking Not-Approved. </p> <p>Could not reproduce in master. </p> <p>I just checked, and the problem still exists for records with no arguments:</p> <p>Clojure 1.6.0-master-SNAPSHOT<br/> user=&gt; (defrecord a [])<br/> user.a<br/> user=&gt; #user.a[]<br/> {}</p> <p>Admittedly it's an edge case and I see little usage for no-arguments records, but I think it should be addressed aswell since the current behaviour is not what one would expect</p> <p>Got the following REPL interaction:</p> <div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent panelContent"> <pre class="code-java">% java -jar ~/.m2/repository/org/clojure/clojure/1.5.0/clojure-1.5.0.jar user=&gt; (defrecord a []) user.a user=&gt; (a.) #user.a{} user=&gt; #user.a{} {} #user.a[] {}</pre> </div></div> <p>This should be reopened or declined for another reason than reproducability.</p> <p>I'm reopening this since the bug is still there.</p> <p>Patch clj-1093-fix-empty-record-literal-patch-v2.txt dated Mar 13, 2013 is identical to Bronsa's patch 001-fix-empty-record-literal.patch dated Oct 24, 2012, except that it applies cleanly to latest master. I'm not sure why the older patch doesn't but git doesn't like something about it.</p> Global Rank Patch Code and Test
