JSR223 - Dynamic Languages on the Java Platform
Abstract
Since years, many languages were already working, in a way or another, with the Java platform. JSR 223 ("Scripting for the Java Platform") allows one to easily plug any compliant script engines on a Java Vitual Machine. Java SE 6 is coming with a bundled JavaScript engine (Mozilla Rhino).
So it has never been so easy to develop or extend an Java application using somehting else than the Java language but with maintaining all benefits of the Java platform (memory management, security, etc).
This session will introduce you to JSR 223 and will then cover two highly popular dynamic languages : JRuby (Ruby in its Java incarnation) and then Groovy (JSR 241)
