Yup, I hinted at that earlier too. What I can't grok is whether Ceylon is superior here and can operate with lazily evaluated, yet typed, hierarchies/trees at runtime. Again, it's very hard for me to imagine the guy behind Hibernate and the Criteria API in Java, not having ambitions regarding a type-safe language integrated query mechanism. I can only imagine he is saving this for an "oh btw." moment. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
