Hi Lucas,

I try to explore this in my screencast:

Perhaps that can help you out.

Hi!

vhost-map is a parameter, which is thread-local, so if you modify it in

the repl, that's not going to affect the thread running the server.

I presume you're not going to change the vhost entries all that much,

so perhaps an extra layer of indirection would solve the problem:

(vhost-map `(("localhost" . ,(lambda (c) (my-proc c)))))

Then you should be able to redefine my-proc, and the lambda in the vhost

should pick it up.

HTH,

Peter
