I'm sure you can see the possible connection between the original question and Scala's case classes and named parameters. My text, at least, isn't blind advocacy, it's just the pointing out of a language feature that could be ported to Java (either by Oracle or through Lombok or similar). Scala only had named parameters since 2.8; before that I'd probably have pointed at Python.
At work when I mention something a competitor is doing, my co-workers don't say "well bugger off and work for them then!". I find it strange that people I choose to join a group with rather than those I'm paid to work with are actually more reactionary. Is it just a pattern match for the word 'Scala' or something? Sorry, a switch statement. :) 2010/10/13 Cédric Beust ♔ <[email protected]>: > > > On Tue, Oct 12, 2010 at 4:57 PM, Kevin Wright <[email protected]> > wrote: >> >> Actually, I believe it's very helpful to the OP. > > How so?
