[…] I think you are referring to [#259][] for which the status is that your original form (jss:jarray-to-list (java:jnew-array (jclass "int") 40)) has been working for some time. [#259]: http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/259 The equivalent form not utilizing JSS, namely (jstatic "asList" "java.util.Arrays" (java:jnew-array (jclass "int") 1)) still fails. The problems stem from how Java-the-language erases parametrized type information at runtime, and how the JAVA package currently tries to match arguments and how it coerces arrays of primitives (it currently doesn't implicitly). As a workaround, don't use arrays of primitive types, instead using the "boxed" Java type: (jstatic "asList" "java.util.Arrays" (java:jnew-array (jclass "java.lang.Integer") 1)) There should be negligible speed differentials on contemporary JVM implementations from what I understand, and if you were that worried about memory, you wouldn't be using Java in the first place, now would you? -- "A screaming comes across the sky.
