variadic functions - How to handle java variable length arguments in clojure?

Question

I'am wrapping a java lib into clojure, but i have problems dealing with variable length arguments. Say,

TestClass.aStaticFunction(Integer... intList){/*....*/}

How could i call this function in clojure?

Since Java varargs are actually arrays, you can call vararg functions in Clojure by passing an array.

You could convert a Clojure seq (maybe by using Clojure's variety of variable argument functions) into an array:

 (TestClass/aStaticFunction (into-array Integer [(int 1),(int 2)]))

or

(defn a-static-function-wrapper [& args]
  (TestClass/aStaticFunction (into-array Integer args))

Or make an array and set its indices manually

(TestClass/aStaticFunction (doto (make-array Integer 3)
                              (aset 0 first-element)
                              (aset 1 second-element)
                              (aset 2 third-element)))
