lein ring server won't auto-reload about luminus HOT 5 CLOSED

I've noticed this issue specifically with changing route definitions. It looks like Compojure will compile these and they will not be reloaded when changed. I'm not sure what the workaround for that would be at the moment.

However, any other changes in the file should be reflected immediately. For example, if you follow the above steps and change the about-page function instead:

(defn about-page []
  "Hi")

That change will be reflected on page reload.

Ah, you're right, it's only the Compojure routes. Thanks for the very quick response! Do you think this would be more appropriate to close and file an issue on Compojure instead? Or lein-ring?

Yeah, I don't think I can do much about that one in the template. :)

why just routes can't?

It appears to be a limitation of how Compojure compiles the routes. If I recall correctly, the routes end up in a global variable and it doesn't get refreshed when the routes are changed.
