How do I disambiguate in Scala between methods with vararg and without

Question

I\'m trying to use the java jcommander library from Scala. The java JCommander class has multiple constructors:

 public JCommander(Object object)  
 publi         


        

Answer 1

I think your easiest option is to have a Java class with a factory method to bridge the issue:

package com.beust.jcommander;

public class JCommanderFactory {
    public static createWithArgs(Object cmdLineArgs) {
        return new JCommander(cmdLineArgs);
    }
}

Alternatively you could use http://jewelcli.sourceforge.net/usage.html instead. JewelCli has an unambiguous factory method for the same purpose and also uses PICA (Proxied Interfaces Configured with Annotations) technique http://www.devx.com/Java/Article/42492/1954.

In fact I have an example of using JewelCLI with Scala here on Stack Overflow.
