Check it out linalg.dev.jav.net. alexanderschunk 2008-01-21T01:24:19-08:00 http://weblogs.java.net/blog/alexanderschunk/archive/2008/01/my_view_on_clos.html In my last entry i was musing some suggestions on how to improve the current closure implementation for Java as proposed by Neil Gafter and its team. I gained some comments and pros and cons and after studying closures in other languages and reading the tutorial posted by Zdenek Tronicek i have some more improvements for closures in Java.

Besides my resistance to learn a new language feature i am a bit doubtful about the closures syntax and have another more language oriented view on closures.

Arent there any good quality opensource projects out there that can compete with high-quality solutions? Do OpenSource developers really dont care about software quality? alexanderschunk 2007-11-12T08:51:49-08:00
