A method that takes an Object[] as an argument {{{ public static void objectArgs(Object[] args) }}} cannot be invoked on an array of primitive types {{{ int i[] = {42}; objectArgs(i); // Doesn't compile }}} But the signature of the method originally in question declares the type of array to extend java.lang.Object: {{{ public static <T extends Object> List<T> asList(T[] ts) }}} and *can* be invoked on an array of primitive types {{{ int i[] = {42}; java.util.Arrays.asList(i); }}} Need to check exactly what kind of code is generated by javac here, but presumably the compiler somehow transforms the primitive array to wrapped type here? So, JAVA:JSTATIC cannot make currently make a call that can be made in Java the language. Presumably JAVA:JCALL has the same sort of problem From experimenting a bit, it would not be enough to fix Java.isApplicableMethod(). We would also at least have to extend Java.javaInstance(Class<?>) to return arrays of primitive types. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/259#comment:4> armedbear <http://common-lisp.net/project/armedbear> armedbear
