Hi Attila,
I understand the generic type info is erased, but my question was
whether there is any way I can "force" Nashorn to convert the elements
as Long rather than Integer when doing the conversion, e.g. using some
special Nashorn specific syntax, e.g.
var arr = [123];
arr.forceConversionAsLong = true; // A contrived example but you get the
point :)
obj.foo(arr);
(or whatever)

I don't think so. As the types are erased at run time all we see is a method
with signature foo(List list). I think if you tried to add two methods to a
class:
public void foo(List<Long> x) { }
public void foo(List<Integer> x) { }
then javac would refuse to compile it saying that both have the same erasure.

Hello folks,
I have a Java method:
public void foo(List<Long> list) {
System.out.println("elem0 is " + list.get(0));
}
Which I call from JS with a JS array:
obj.foo([123]);
This results in a ClassCastException as Nashorn converts the JS Array into a
java.util.List instance which contains a java.lang.Integer element (not
java.lang.Long)
Is there any way to force Nashorn to convert the array elements as Longs not
Integers?
Thanks.
