embedding groovy in your java applications
DESCRIPTION
Speaker: Cedric Champeau The Groovy language has always been promoted as an excellent companion to the Java language, but also as a lightweight platform for building DSLs on the JVM. In practice, Groovy offers a wide range of options to integrate with Java: plain application then use it as a jar dependency, cross-compilation, GroovyScriptEngine, GroovyShell, ... Furthermore, each of those solutions have benefits or disavantages that you might not be aware of. In this talk, we will discuss those options, show examples of integration and demonstrate how you can leverage the rich configuration options of Groovy to make the experience very smooth. If you ever dreamt of sneaky throwing Groovy into your heavyweight application, you may end up with new ideas to do so!TRANSCRIPT
