features inconsistency

[Victor Anyakin <anyakin at bonustec dot com>]

Greetings to All,

  I would like to share my experience using Kawa interpreter.

  Everything seems fine, but, it seems to me somewhat odd, how strings
  are processed.  There are lots of cases, when strings returned from
  java methods (of type <java.lang.String>) are not accepted by Kawa
  routines (like string->number).  Each time I pass or receive a
  string, extra care has to be taken, in order to ensure, that it will
  be normally processed.

  One more issue are plain java arrays.  I find it inconvenient to
  define (primitive-array-get <type>) and so forth every time I wish
  to process plain java array.



  Probably, I am wrong, and there is no other way to simplify these
  routines.

With best regards,
