Note the exception, "[[C" means a two-dimensional arary. (make-array Character/TYPE 3 \a) actually means (make-array Character/TYPE 3 97) so a 3 by 97 two-dimensional array (new char[3][97] in java syntax). What you probably want is: user> (String. #^"[C" (into-array Character/TYPE (repeat 3 \a))) "aaa" --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
