about require_java

[femto gary]

Just some thought, how about supporting for star like 'org.antlr.runtime.*'
>>
this is the original beanworm's post:
I added a new package com.xruby.runtime.javasupport to support java
classes. Now we can introduce java classes by using require_java
method. Here's an example:

require_java 'org.beanworms.test.Talker'

t = Talker.new
t.talk "XRuby"
t.talk "Mr.", "XRuby"

business trip now, and may not be able to reply soon.

Hi,
To support wildcard is a good idea. :)

Thanks

It support wildcard now! You can write code like this:

import "java.util.*"

r = Random.new
puts r.nextInt

array = ArrayList.new
array.add 1
array.add 2
array.add 3
for i in 1 ... 3
puts array.get(i)
end

Although import the whole package,but not import all classes right
now. Every class in the package only be imported in need.This is
accomplished throught hacking code in
RubyAPI#getCurrentNamespaceConstant method.

"import" is "require_java"'s alias.As a Java programmer,I fee that
"import" is more friendliness.

[femto]

hi feiyu, actually I feel require is better,
because we are following ruby wisdom here but not java wisdom.
Thanks for the effort:)
And do you know how spring handles classpath searching
like classpath:com/xruby/**/ etc? Just a ask.

I've developed a function like this. Just search jar or directory for
.class file. It sucks but works.

I agree with femto that import is more Java rather than Ruby.

search jar or directory, yeap.
but spring uses classpath:**, so how do I know where in the classpath
has how many jars or directorys? Do Java have support for this?
