Re: New DSLs in the groovy platform itself for more script like use cases
Thanks Jochen Theodorou, Thanks for the feedback. I will create new topic of each DSL and elaborate there to enable easy discussions...! Reg, Adithyan K -- Sent from: http://groovy.329449.n5.nabble.com/Groovy-Dev-f372993.html

You will also have to explain why you want what you want specifically... for example those bw prefixed methods... I am not sure what they are actually for. bye Jochen
Re: New DSLs in the groovy platform itself for more script like use cases
Hi, reminders are always welcome - we are all busy and sometimes leave things hoping someone else will respond. When I first saw your email I thought some of these looked good but perhaps not all and I haven't had time to go through and select and suspect I won't have time for another couple of weeks. The hardest choices with languages is to work out what to leave out rather than what might be good to have in. Cheers, Paul.

Hi All, Sorry for the disturbance ! I had proposed some of the friendly DSLs in groovy platform itself.

New DSLs in the groovy platform itself for more script like use cases
I have always felt that groovy platform itself can have rich set of DSLs (list given below) so that groovy will be in hands of many non-developers. Even developers will find it much useful for quicker outputs.We can design the DSLs in such a way that non-developers can define the work in declarative style.Some of my ideas and an example structure for each idea is given below.These are my proposals. We can identify lot of such use cases.Can I start working on these if the team approves !Is it the right channel to gain the votes, I am not sure. Pls advice 1. Database a. Database querying, data transformation, printb. Similar Use cases can be listed very easily 2. Text / String processing a. use cases for more command line text processing like `awk`b. command line usage 3. Lot of String Extension methods 4. Simple Unit conversions a. 938.meter.toMilesb. 9823749.bytes.toGBc. lots like this 5. Http Client DSL a. Download / xml processing / print raw text 6. Xml to different types of 2d conversion 7. Json to different types of 2d conversion -- Sent from: http://groovy.329449.n5.nabble.com/Groovy-Dev-f372993.html
