[jira] Commented: (BUILDR-136) Support Scala/Java Joint Compiler

["Alex Boisvert (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-136?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12673800#action_12673800 ] 

Alex Boisvert commented on BUILDR-136:
--------------------------------------

I've added specs for joint compilation.

git://github.com/aboisvert/buildr.git / scala-joint-compilation branch

However, not all specs pass right now due to the scala/tests_spec.rb depending on Scala 2.7.1...  posted a question on the mailing list.

> As of Scala 2.7.2 (shortly to be released in stable form), the scalac compiler features joint compilation with Java in the same manner as groovyc.  This should be supported by Buildr just as groovyc joint compilation is.  Of course, this does beg the question: what happens when you want to use *both* Groovy and Scala alongside Java?  As far as I know, the underlying compilers do not provide such support at this time, so Buildr could probably just spit out an error if both the groovy and scala compiler packages were required into the same buildfile.
