`resolve` should support array class symbols?

Question

Clojure 1.12.0-alpha6 has introduced array class symbols, but it doesn't seem that resolve supports them right now:

(resolve 'long**) ;=> nil
(resolve 'String**) ;=> nil

It would be nice if resolve would be aware of array class symbols. Otherwise, it'd require extra work for some sorts of macros and development tools (that use resolve under the hood) to support them.

Answer 1

I'm not sure that resolve should work for this as it's really about looking things up in the namespace mappings. We'll talk about it though, thanks.
