Hi all,

I want to compose a java function call out of a string in a macro:

I tried something like this simplified example, but it doesn't work.
creating a symbol out of a string is not enough.
Note: I know that uppercase variable names are bad, but it simplifies the 
example.

So how I do it right?

TIA Steffen

repl:

user> (defmacro set-example [obj feature]
  (let [meth-name# (symbol (str ".set" (name feature)))]
    `(~meth-name# ~obj  ~feature)))

#'user/set-example
user> (let [o (javax.swing.JCheckBox . "foo")
            Label "xxx"]  
        (set-example o Label))
CompilerException java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resolve symbol: . 
in this context, compiling:(/tmp/form-init6247570319423795481.clj:1:9)
