Gavin made me look at groovy for things like closures, and the groovy site shows a pervasive set of changes in the core jdk classes to support things like groovy.lang.Range, groovy.lang.Closure: http://groovy.codehaus.org/groovy-jdk.html
but the associated jsrs don't seem far along: http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=241 http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=223 I should probably know this but I don't see anything on the jdk6 eg, and the jdk6 beta has nothing in the apis for groovy as yet. Anyone know more about its status? The related question I have is whether closures are something that make sense in javassist/aop as a more abstract representation of the behavior of an aspect. This could be used to cleanup code reuse in boilerplate aspects like security. Today they only differ in the interceptor/aspect invoke signature. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Scott Stark VP Architecture & Technology JBoss Inc. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
