Call java varargs method from kotlin

Question

I have a java function:

public static void initialize(@NonNull Activity activity, Settings... settings) {} 

I want to call it from kotlin:

 fun initialize(activity: Activity, vararg settings: settings) = JavaClass.initialize(activity, settings) 

But it does not compile, telling me that there is a type mismatch, Settings is required, but the argument is kotlin.Array<out Settings>

I see that he is trying to match it with signture

 public static void initialize(@NonNull Activity activity, Settings settings) {} 

but i want to use

 public static void initialize(@NonNull Activity activity, Settings[] settings) {}

You should use the following syntax:

 fun initialize(activity: Activity, vararg settings: settings) = JavaClass.initialize(activity, *settings)
