Description

The generic function default-constructor-arguments returns a default list of arguments to pass to the constructor.

It is used by create-instance-jobject-list when its args argument is t. default-constructor-arguments is also used by the cl:initialize-instance method of standard-java-object when :construct is passed with value t. It is intended for you to specialize on your own classes.

The default method returns nil, which is sometimes useful, but in most cases you probably need to pass something.
