That is awesome. If the Java 8 syntax is supported, does that mean Groovy will support lambdas? One thing that saddened me about using Java 8 from Groovy is that you have the overhead of closure classes/meta class and the “dynamic” conversion/proxy into the Java functional interfaces, while the same code written in Java uses the lambda functionality which appears to return a singleton instance of a VM-generated class with presumably much less overhead.
Groovy will be supporting that at one point I think. bye Jochen
