- Maybe we shouldn't reinvent the wheel. We already have the minilang
parsing logic, why not just use it to convert everything to Java? Yeah it
might look a bit odd, but we can do a full migration of all minilang
scripts in one shot. Then we can slowly focus on cleanup.
I like the idea but I have to disagree. I'm against "blindly" converting
Minilang to Java.
One of the reason, and I guess the main reason, why Minilang was created is because the need to compile for simple events and even services is a pain
when you want to develop fast (who don't?)
I explained that POV at https://s.apache.org/VDbJ
There were other reasons we should not forget https://s.apache.org/IVFH
So we need to check if we have an as complete DSL with Groovy DSL before
switching https://s.apache.org/xLl0
BTW, I don't recall we discussed about a replacement of "Simple Map Processor",
did we?
