[Lift] Re: **Breaking Changes** **README** **Important**

Hi all, I'm using XMPP in my little LiftApp and tried to migrate my code to the new Lift Actors. Somehow it seems that net.liftweb.xmpp still uses Scala Actors. Is this intentional or about to change? If not is it possible that Scala Actors communicate with Lift Actors? At the moment I don't get m

Hi Dano, You need to add "import net.liftweb.common._" in your source code. This will import Box and Failure classes. Jean-Luc PS : copy of David's message explaining your problem. Hope it helps ! [...]The two big changes that you'll have to work with are: - *Box/Full/Empty/Failure was mov

I know this is not the programming languages weblog but I'll still like to chip in a bit.. I love Scala. I know it's confusing, sometimes (more often than not) it makes my head hurts. But the language itself is so expressive. I think it's kinda, well, maybe I'm machoistic, but there's often insta

How hard can automatic save be? But how would immutable DAOs work? There was a thread, I think on scala-user, a long time ago discussing it, that pretty much concluded it would be very problematic. David weighed in and said after a long time he concluded that databases represent state. --

The last use of _, as in empty_?, is not a special scala meaning. As on Java, underscores can be part of an identifier. Scala takes advantage of this to combine letters and symbols in one name. These names, like empty_?, are a Lift convention, as well as ..._! for use-with-care methods. The sca

If we are using Actors for non Comet based stuff I assume we are free to leave them as is as long as we don't come asking for support ? I am thinking about moving through switching them over, but I'd like to do it at a leisurely pace. Jono 2009/10/23 David Pollak > > > On Thu, Oct 22, 2009 at
