It will be great to see what kind of interesting new things this opens
up for us. It might also fit in well with the annotation-based classes
that were suggested earlier today, to provide easier integration + speed.
Yeah, adding annotation support will be easy, and can come immediately
after basic signature support is in. So JUnit4 tests, JPA persistence,
EE5+ beans, and all the rest would "just work".
I've also thought through how to do serialization. Essentially the
compiler2 output would just need to override the appropriate
serialization methods, but then use Ruby marshalling for the data. That
would allow the object to serialize and deserialize fine, so long as
JRuby, the compiler2-generated class, and any code the class depended on
existed on the other side.
