It's a JSR, the syntax is Java like, it feels like part of Java, etc. It doesn't feel like a whole new language to me. Instead it feels like an extension or part of Java. For example, when writing web apps in Struts 2 or JSF (via Seam, or JSF 2.0) it is possible to use Groovy to write the code behind the web app. This can make web development faster.<br><br>Ruby on the other hand is a whole separate language with a syntax that keeps me from even considering it. The rudeness of the Ruby community is also terrible and I do not want to support their Java bashing cause. <br><br>I love Java. Why should I even care about Ruby when I can continue to use the language and frameworks I love, backed with a Java like JSR scripting language.RyanSun, 20 Jan 2008 09:24:59 -0000
