I have come across the @JvmSynthetic annotation in kotlin-stdlib, and I'm wondering what it is for, but, unfortunately, it is undocumented. (UPD: it was at that moment)
As far as I understand, applying it to a program element will add the synthetic…

        Does Clojure have an equivalent of Java's import package.*?
Or do I have to specifically enumerate every class that I import?

(import '(java.io *))
Not that this is valid syntax, but it would be nice to…

For the purposes of interoperability with Java, I need a class that has a nullary constructor that performs initialization.

I am trying to wrap a Java library with a Clojure binding.  One particular class in the Java library defines a bunch of static final constants, for example:

For example, say I wanted to get String.valueOf(boolean). My nearest guess…

        Clojure - convert list into Java array
Is there any idiomatic way of converting Clojure list into Java array, other than first converting it to vector and using into-array (means, something other than (into-array (vec my-list)), as I don't want additional overhead)?

I can wrap a Java function like this:
