Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-851:
--------------------------------------
Some reference:
ReactiveJava: https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava
Akka (for Java or for Scala): http://akka.io/
RxJava could be a better candidate (more Java oriented, and for local usage) as
backend for internal event/messaging, anyway we are free to explore all
solutions.
> Verify if move to a more reactive approach for event propagation and loose
> coupling between components

> Verify if move to a more reactive approach for event propagation and loose
> coupling between components.
> For example, verify (for what it's possible in Java, without a full rewrite
> in Scala)

> An innovative frameworks like Play have chosen for its new major release
> (2.0, released in March 2012) to do a full rewrite in Scala BUT with full
> compatibility even with Java (and Java 8 should have the same features too
> ...).
> Last, another interesting point to explore (but again mainly for Scala, or
> using Akka even from Java) could be to use Actors (local and/or remote), even
> for events ... just as idea.
> Many other interesting ideas for a more "complete" approach to make
> applications from Eclise E4 (extension points, mapping controllers to URLs,
> etc), for example some info here:
> http://www.vogella.com/articles/Eclipse4RCP/article.html
> and of course even from Griffon (in from the Groovy side).
> At the moment this issue is only a pleceholder to share in the same place
> ideas and links on this subject ... so as always comments are welcome.
