Wow. It's fascinating that someone would list both Groovy and Scala! The former is a cowboy language that is poorly constrained and ill-defined while the latter is strongly founded in theory and precisely defined. Or, as I've occasionally opined, Groovy is scruffy and Scala is neat. And ANTLR? I use it, but it hardly represents either a JVM-specific language or, really, a programming language at all, in any conventional sense. > ... > > Jim Randall Schulz --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JVM Languages" group.
