Hi Luca,
It'll work, you're just not doing it quite the right way.
The first argument to 'call' is the object or classname through which to
call the function; the second argument is the function name; and the
rest are arguments; so you've got that slightly wrong; you probably
meant to write
(call ?obj foo java.awt.Color.red)
Anyhow. To pass the static variable as an argument, you have to
'retrieve' it, as if you were assigning it to a variable. The
'get-member' function does this. So all together, something like
(call ?obj foo (get-member java.awt.Color red))
will do what you want.
