This seems like a potential usecase for (memfn):
-------------------------
clojure.core/memfn
([name & args])
Macro
Expands into code that creates a fn that expects to be passed an
object and any args and calls the named instance method on the
object passing the args. Use when you want to treat a Java method as
a first-class fn.
user> (= (map (memfn getName) (-> (Runtime/
getRuntime) .getClass .getMethods seq))
(map #(.getName %) (-> (Runtime/
getRuntime) .getClass .getMethods seq)))
true
