There's no macro magic involved so it should just say "env".</p> CLJ-818

doc string for resolve mentions &env

Enhancement Trivial Closed Declined Unassigned Steve Miner Thu, 7 Jul 2011 14:55:01 -0500 Fri, 1 Mar 2013 12:47:03 -0600 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 08:41:20 -0500 Release 1.3 0 2 <p>There are earlier uses of &amp;form and &amp;env in core.clj, but they are all in bootstrap code and none of them become visible in doc strings. There are no other occurrences of &amp; in resolve or ns-resolve, so it seems reasonable to remove it from resolve's doc string.</p> <p>Patch applies cleanly to latest master as of Feb 24, 2012.</p> <p>The only way to access local environments in Clojure is with the special <tt>&amp;env</tt> argument in a macro, so the use of <tt>&amp;env</tt> in the ns-resolve docstring makes sense.</p> <p>Declined.</p> Global Rank Patch Code
