I'm not sure if this is intended, but I've noticed that JSNI methods on
string do not work.
I tried equals, compareTo, compareToIgnoreCase and charAt, but none of them
worked.
I used my fork and the pristine 2.7, and in super dev + regular compile; in
all cases, the functions come back undefined
GWT strings and arrays are JS native strings and arrays (no prototype
monkey patching), in Java code calls to Object, String, Array and
Comparable methods are devirtualized if applied to instances typed at one
of those types.
So the answer is yes: You wont be able to call instance methods this way
Please file an issue to keep track.

Same also applies to JSOs. (i.e. You cannot call JSO methods with JSNI).

Ok, great. Thanks for the heads up. I was pretty sure that Strings had
become native first-class objects.
Since JSOs will all have public methods, I will be safe with the same fix
for String (not using JSNI if not necessary).
Given that java arrays only have one field, and that field does not
Getting offtopic, but there is absolutely no requirement that JSO methods
are public. See dom.client.Element for several examples of private methods.

I stand very much corrected. /hat tip/
I suppose I've already been using JsType so much it has begin to cloud my
judgement.
Hm. How ironic that the only methods unreachable to reflection-via-jsni
would be private jsni methods? :-)
