Say I have an array of values, arbitrary length, that I want to pass
as the arguments to a method.

For example, with this:
  positionalArgs = ['foo', 'bar', 42]; // this varies, may be any length
I want to make this call:
  SomeComponent.someMethod('foo', 'bar', 42);

Is there a positional equivalent to argumentCollection, or some other
language construct that I don't know about to do this? If the
arguments were in a structure, I could pass it as the
argumentCollection, but I don't know how to do this by position in a
clean way.

Only thing I thought of is a switch statement with some finite number
of cases, each of which calls the method with a specific number of
arguments, like this (partial):
   case 2:
      SomeComponent.someMethod(positionalArgs[1], positionalArgs[2]);
      break;
   case 3:
      SomeComponent.someMethod(positionalArgs[1], positionalArgs[2],
positionalArgs[3]);
      break;
   etc...

Any thoughts? Thanks,

Dave
