Hi Ted,

I have no experience with Groovy, so therefore I had chosen Java. But it's a good idea. I don't know for sure if it's possible to intergrate the groovy runtime in Java. If it's possible I don't need to rewrite portions of the interface.

Cheers,
Anner.

Anner,

It looks like you have put quite a bit of effort into your current
implementation.

Have you considered doing this in the context of a language like Groovy, Ruby or Python that already has all of the ordinary stuff like arithmetic? That would let you focus on the important pieces of making Thrift accessible in a very congenial fashion. The syntax you describe, for instance, could easily be done almost without change in Groovy which is particularly suited
to domain specific languages.

I'm currently working on a utility and domain specific language for
scripting a Thrift client. It's conveniently called "Thrift Console" and
the
"Thrift Console Scripting Language" or for short "TConsole" and "TCSL".
