Re^2: Rakudo Star (Perl 6 bundle) now supports MoarVM and JVM backends by raiph (Deacon) on May 07, 2014 at 16:45 UTC
From jnthn's examples of calling Java code: `use java::util::zip::CRC32:from<java>; my $crc = CRC32.new(); for 'Hello, Java'.encode('utf-8') { $crc.'method/update/(B)V'($_); } say $crc.getValue();` [download] As you can see, it requires an arcane string in place of a regular method name. Aiui jnthn knows what they have to do to fix this (so you can just use a regular method name) but I don't think any core hacker currently has it high on their todo list. »ö« ^{. o O ( "the celebrity tell-all of the Perl-6 cult?" )}	[reply] [d/l]

use java::util::zip::CRC32:from<java>; 
 
my $crc = CRC32.new(); 
 
for 'Hello, Java'.encode('utf-8') { 
 $crc.'method/update/(B)V'($_); 
} 
 
say $crc.getValue();
