Thanks, that worked great! Since my func came from a different namespace, the following seems to work ok.
(defn dispatcher [name-space func-name alist] (apply (ns-resolve *ns* (symbol func-name)) alist)) I am able to invoke this from my java code: RT.loadResourceScript(pathScript); Var function = RT.var(namespace, "dispatcher"); Object result = function.invoke(namespace + "/" + functionName, argList); Thank you again.
