Yes, I am - I want to move my server platform in that direction, so that I can modify code on the production server on the fly, but it’s quite a large development and not going to be capable of being split off into open source any time soon. Long term I want to move to more javascript on the server, and this could be node.js based but doing that would require a complete redevelopment of my server architecture; so an alternative might be to switch to Nashorn and run the node.js API on top of Nashorn. This would be particularly cool if that meant that the core platform could run either in native node.js or be embedded with Java, because then there are two major types of users the project would appeal to. IMHO there are a lots of benefits to this approach, eg having the Javascript architecture based on Qooxdoo will bring OO maturity that Java devs will appreciate, JS devs will be able to do end-to-end JS in ES6, and JavaEE devs will be able to add rapid scripting to their enterprise platform :) Not to mention that asynchronous everything is an extremely scalable architecture, something that Java has traditionally been poor on. One of the limitations that QxCompiler will solve is high speed incremental compilations and the ability to detect when the server needs to reload it’s VM so it’s a deliberate first step in this direction. What do you think? Lets keep chatting about it, how far along are your plans?
