03/21/2018, 2:13 PMIs there a way to pass an array to a function that takes a vararg parameter? The spread operator passes a copy of the array, not the array itself. I encountered this problem when reading the docs of `Arrays.asList`:
Returns a fixed-size list backed by the specified array. (Changes to the returned list "write through" to the array.)But it looks like using this property is not possible from Kotlin since you can't pass the real array.

May be this should work.
