Domain model could be written in java, groovy, scala etc. Am I the only one who think this tendency is wrong?
I think there is a need for some NO language to describe objects. Some simple language to generate stub classes in java, groovy, scala etc. Then we could use these stubs as base classes & add all domain specific features. But still able to update stubs via recompiling stub classes. Dan, what do you think about this? I do remember in the beginning the java was the only one language to describe model. It was good. Now we have groove, gonna have scala.. is it really right thing to do? On Fri, Oct 15, 2010 at 11:54 PM, Dan Haywood <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Christophe, > That's great to hear.
