leiningen's run task in clojure with cake

I have recently started looking at cake as an alternative to leiningen as it uses a single jvm instance and so is much faster. However, its run task is not quite the same as leiningen's and I can't find any task in cake that just runs the -main method in the namespace I specify in the project.clj file. Does cake have any such task?

On the other hand, I tried writing a custom cake task which launched the app for me, but I was getting import errors, which make me think that may be the complete CLASSPATH is not built when the tasks are executed.

So, is there a task with cake that is equivalent to lein run?

This doesn't currently exist. I'll add it.

The current run task just runs a file. Try passing it a Clojure file to run.

cake is advancing quickly and so far as I understand it run is supposed to be the same. Make sure you are running the latest cake code (because it changes often) and perhaps you will get it fixed if you bring it up on the mailing list.
