Integration with other JVM-based languages

Developers: Paul Sandoz
Status: ongoing

Languages like Scala and Groovy have good integration with the JVM, Scala being more mature and stable in this respect. For example, it is possible to write a resource class in Scala and deploy it using the Light Weight HTTP server or in a Servlet container (see here and here).

Consider providing more friendly language bindings to APIs/SPIs.

Investigate libraries/features for accessing databases and supporting concurrency (via actors in Scala). Consider building language specific Web framework from such features.
