I really want to do something different: (def x (new StringBuffer "aaaa")) (doto x (.setLength 2)) But my point is to be able to construct the method name in runtime. Using doto, I still have the same problem: (defmacro setProperty [field obj value] `(let [cct# (symbol (.concat ".set" ~field))] (doto ~obj (cct# ~value)) ) ) If I do: (def sb (new StringBuffer "aaaa")) (setProperty "Length" sb 2) sb I get "aaaa" (It should be "aa"). Again, the point here is to be able to construct method names (full call signatures, really) on runtime. I am lost.
