There is - 2.2 came out a week or two ago with a standalone compiler, an ant task, and a maven plugin.
Maven plugin works great, apart from sending the generated source to src/main/xtend-gen ( configurable ), I raised a bug and the default is now target/generated-sources/xtend-gen which means IntelliJ just magically picks up the generated source. So far I quite like Xtend - generating .java source and leaving the compile up to you actually seems quite nice in that it works out of the box with Android, Google App Engine, OSGi etc. Xtend to me feels much like CoffeeScript - Xtend is "just java classes" with a very thin runtime library - it's the same type system - and the best thing - extension methods via @Inject'ed fields is darn awesome. -- "Great artists are extremely selfish and arrogant things" — Steven Wilson, Porcupine Tree On Thu, Dec 22, 2011 at 5:57 PM, Ricky Clarkson <[email protected]>wrote: > I think you're missing xtend-lang, which also goes tools-first, > possibly too far in that I don't think there's yet a > publically-available command-line compiler, only an Eclipse plugin. > Fantom?
