Good point. Actually the plugin didn't handle this case either (fixed now). Thanks for the feedback.

You don't think it would limit the independent use of f()?

This language looks really cool. Thanks for sharing.

You can also rethrow checked exceptions as runtime exceptions by exploiting type erasure: public static RuntimeException unchecked(Exception e) { Exceptions.<RuntimeException>throw_checked(e); return null;

I put Java's popularity down to good support for Corporate-Oriented Programming ;)

You still get warnings about checked exceptions from this plugin, so it's not entirely flying blind.

I think this project shows how trivial it is to convert checked exception errors to compiler warnings. https://github.com/rogerkeays/unchecked/blob/f22c8cde3557de0... No need to change the type hierarchy. Jus

Good point...

Ha, yeh. At first I had the command line examples first, but everyone was going on and on about maven and stuff, so I figured that's what the audience wants. [EDIT] I moved the command line stuff back to the top of the README. XML make

The "what to do" and "tests" sections of this article is spot on! As for the sociopath/psychopath distinction, I think both terms refer to people with a Cluster B personality disorder. Since this is such a mouthful,

The JDK team won't like this. As it is Fluent, Lombok, and (I presume) Manifold are using all sorts of unsupported hacks to access compiler internals. If you restrict yourself to the compiler plugin API you don't get much mileage.

IDEs are not my strong point. Aren't they smart enough to just search static methods in the scope of the compilation unit? Okay, so they have to be indexed first I suppose, but still... Ah, I suppose you want to search for methods you

How do you do the same thing to java.lang.String?

by rogerkeays 3y ago
Nice example. The extra parameters really drive the point home. Hope you don't mind if I steal it for the README.

I don't know yet. I'm already using some of my own variations of sneakyThrows, but what I really want is just to disable the whole damn thing in the compiler (checked exceptions are a compiler feature, not a JVM feature). I won&#x

Yes, inheritance is a nightmare!

Fluent transforms the abstract syntax tree at compile-time resulting in .class'es in a .jar that always work at runtime. There are no runtime dependencies.
25.
by rogerkeays 3y ago
The syntax tree is only transformed when instance method lookup fails. i.e. when your code doesn't compile in standard java form. You would be doing pretty well to accidentally call an extension method seeing as you either have to writ

You can call a static method on an instance. This project allows you to call static methods not defined within the instance's class.

Do you really think a JEP is worth investing my time in? AFAICT, the Java gods have already made up their minds on extension methods.

Thanks for the link. I've been trying to find the canonical answer to this question myself. There's the philosophical standpoint: API designers should control their APIs , and the technical: poor reflective discoverability, poor

Just to make it clear, Fluent does not use any annotations.

by rogerkeays 3y ago
Yeh, backwards compatibility is one of the biggest selling points of Java. Hopefully, Fluent will show that we can change one or two lines of compiler code and not burn down the whole house. We'll see.
