Inspector Jay
Inspector Jay is an inspection utility that can help you to debug and/or understand Clojure/Java code. Just pass an object or data structure to the inspect
function and you can quickly examine its contents in a simple graphical user interface.
- Inspect just about anything reachable from an object by navigating Inspector Jay's tree structure.
- Examine the field values of objects and the return values of invoked methods.
- Similar to
clojure.inspector
, Clojure data structures and Java collections can also be examined. - Inspector Jay can be used in both Clojure and Java applications.

function can be configured with various keyword arguments. The complete list of configuration options is available in gui.clj/default-options.
