I find mixing Scala and Java trivial and my Java is weak. I really don't understand the authors problems.
Edit: Maven does a good job of building mixed Java/Scala systems.
- jrockway 17y agoSame; I don't know much Java, but I was able to write an Android / Scala app this weekend without any major problems. (OK, my computer won't recognize my phone and I can't install the app. But it works in the emulator.) (Scala was probably the easiest language I have ever learned. No new concepts or syntax, just Java with some FP stuff and traits. Basically, everything Java was meant to be and should have been. But it's really an imperative / OO language with the ability to do FP -- the standard library is not set up for pure FP like Haskell's. For that reason, I continue to prefer Haskell... but if Java compat is necessary, it's a great language.)
