Sorry I have this wrong: (#"toString" (make-array 10 :element-type 'character :adjustable t :fill-pointer 3 :initial-contents "fooxxxxxxx")) is what returns "fooxxxxxxx" jcall version returns "foo". Which I don't understand. But which perhaps I will in the morning. -Alan On Sat, May 8, 2010 at 2:32 AM, Alan Ruttenberg <alanruttenberg@gmail.com>wrote:

Looks like fill pointer isn't taken into account:

(jcall "toString" (make-array 10 :element-type 'character :adjustable t :fill-pointer 3 :initial-contents "fooxxxxxxx")) -> "fooxxxxxxx"
