If I have the following class:
`
public class ClojureTestBean {
private java.util.Map foo;
public void setFoo(Map foo) {
this.foo = foo;
}
public Map getFoo() {
return foo;
}
}
`
And I run the following clojure:
`
(def bean-instance (ClojureTestBean.))
(. bean-instance setFoo {"bar" "baz"})
(def bean-instance-as-map (from-java bean-instance))
(def new-bean-instance (to-java ClojureTestBean bean-instance-as-map))
`
The final line throws a {{java.lang.InstantiationException: java.util.Map}} exception (full stack trace found below). It looks like there's a {{to-java}} method that, when it gets a {{APersistentMap}}, tries to create an instance of the type of the parameter which in this case is a {{Map}} interface, which of course cannot be instantiated.
I'm wondering why the {{APersistentMap}} wouldn't be passed in directly, as it implements the {{Map}} interface?
