Hi all, after doing some test from Groovy, using some Groovy Script to create minimal Pivot Applications, for more tests on this: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-917 you can find related examples here: http://svn.codespot.com/a/apache-extras.org/pivot-stuff/trunk/pivot-stuff-common-groovy/
I'm thinking that for 2.1 could be useful to have a way to inject data inside Applications, for example have some variable (like a Classloader and maybe others) in a script and inject (or even set by hand) in the Application. But of course this requires a little update in that API, like add a method setExternalProperties(Map <String, Object> properties) or similar ... and let Applications implement it if needed (or use the empty version in Application.Adapter) ... Then, DesktopApplicationContext currently uses a Class instance of Application (dynamically loading the class instance), so maybe we could even add a method to get an Application instance already created ... What do you think ? Note: after Groovy, even Scala-2.11.0 (now in Milestone 5) should support Scripting from shell, so this kind of features could be useful ... And on Jython I'm sure we'll find a way to make it work the same, probably the PIVOT-917 issue (see above) will be resolved rewriting related samples in the "right Pivot-way" :-) ... if someone want to help us on this, is welcome. Bye, Sandro
