I just stumbled upon groovy++ and found it quite interesting.
Unfortunately it seems that it's not further developed?
Has the project moved and has another name now? Has it become obsolete because of improvements to groovy? Or is it just discontinued?
Thanks for any insight!
Groovypp stopped being updated about a year ago, and should be considered discontinued afaik.
Static compilation is now being added to Groovy 2.0 (via the @CompileStatic
and @TypeChecked
annotations).
There's some description of the new Groovy features here, and a performance comparison (for what it's worth) here
