I need to provide some better examples, but the missing bit of code is generating the class files after you've done the building process:
builder.generate do |filename, class_builder| File.open(filename, 'w') {|f| f.write(class_builder.generate)} end The generate method on the main builder passes the .class filename and the ClassBuilder for each class. ClassBuilder#generate produces the bytes for the class. Note that I've never released JVMScript officially, but I want to; if you start playing around with it, keep in mind the following: 1. I'm interested in input and willing to make changes before doing a release 2. The Compiler namespace will probably become JVMScript So a shorter, more complete example: ~/projects/duby ➔ cat simple.rb require 'jvmscript' builder = Compiler::FileBuilder.build('simple.source') do public_class 'simple', object do public_static_method 'main', void, string[] do aload 0 ldc_int 0 aaload aprintln end end end builder.generate do |file, cls| File.open(file, 'w') {|f| f.write(cls.generate)} end ~/projects/duby ➔ jruby -I ../jvmscript/lib simple.rb ~/projects/duby ➔ javap -c simple Compiled from "simple.source" public class simple extends java.lang.Object{ public static void main(java.lang.String[]); Code: 0: aload_0 1: ldc #8; //int 0 3: aaload 4: dup 5: getstatic #14; //Field java/lang/System.out:Ljava/io/PrintStream; 8: swap 9: invokevirtual #20; //Method java/io/PrintStream.println:(Ljava/lang/Object;)V } - Charlie René Jansen wrote: > Hi Charlie, > > thanks for sharing this, it looks most useful.
