[armedbear-devel] multidimensional java arrays?

I am trying to connect ABCL up with some java code that uses multidimensional arrays of the form:

int[][] theArray = new int[4][4];

The problem is that when I call this code I get something like this in return:

#(#<jarray [I@2d983837 {6492BA43}> #<jarray [I@5d02b84a {5D9131FA}> #<jarray [I@67684413 {6E4D706E}> #<jarray [I@1e107e55 {4CD60DDE}>)

that is a lisp array that contains 4 java arrays. I can’t pass this off to a method like this:

static public int[][] arrayTest2(int[][] oldArray) { … }

I can work around this by creating a new java array myself (and populating it appropriately), but this is no fun. Is this the intended behavior?

thanks,

Cyrus
