This should be available during AOT compilation. The name "&#42;line-number*" might be good.</p> <p>It will be useful for diagnostic log messages. Using exception stack traces has poor runtime performance and the line number should be available to the compiler at minimal cost.</p> Any CLJ-849

Enhancement Minor Open Unresolved Unassigned G. Ralph Kuntz, MD Fri, 7 Oct 2011 07:59:03 -0500 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 15:44:21 -0600 Release 1.3 0 3 <p>Adding initial patch. A symbol's position is now stored in its metadata, just like a seq when it is read with the LispReader. </p> <p>The Compiler.LINE and Compiler.COLUMN values are now updated as each symbol is analyzed. This provides more exact line and column numbers for Compiler errors which will resolve ticket <a href="http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-420" title="Some compiler exceptions erroneously using REPL line numbers.">CLJ-420</a>.</p> <p>The Compiler.LINE variable has been interned as clojure.core/<b>line-number</b></p> <p>Adding extra metadata to symbols resulted in some tests failing due to the extra values. The failing tests have been updated to ignore the new metadata keys.</p> Global Rank Patch Code and Test
