Here is my problem, distilled. This code should tell the full story:
static class Apple<K, V> {}
Apple<String, Integer> a = new Apple<String, Integer>() {};
Type[] x = ((ParameterizedType)a.getClass().getGenericSuperclass())
.getActualTypeArguments();
// x is a Type array containing String, Integer
HOWEVER, via Clojure `proxy`, I don't have a way to tell it which type
arguments to use--
(proxy [Apple [String Integer]] []) ;; something like this is not supported
Certain frameworks, however, consult these type arguments to govern their
own dynamic behavior.
Having Clojure's proxy support specifying type arguments would allow for
this not uncommon Java interop need.
