( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Some time back, samurai asked if there were any options for incorporating a dash of Perlishness into Java, and at that time the answer was "no". Well with the passage of time that answer has changed, and I am pleased to announce the Perl Idioms for Java project over at Sourceforge.

So far we have implemented foreach, grep, join, map, pop, push, shift, split and unshift, a (very) rudimentary form of autovivication, and a class representing Perl's notion of truth. If only I could convey my glee at the realization that a java.lang.Boolean initialized to "false" is true according to Perl's semantics :^P

We haven't released any files officially, however the source code is available for your perusal under CVS here, and comments on implementation or theoretical points are most welcome. Enjoy!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
