Practical Scala
Dianne Marsh, Founder/Software Consultant, SRT Solutions
Date & Time/Location: 3-26-09, 4:00pm-5:00pm, Salon B
Looking for a better Java? Do the proposed Java 7 features fall short (or seem too far off)? Are you wondering if there's a way to use Scala as a better Java, putting aside its functional features at least for a while? This talk will focus on the improvements that the Scala language offers over Java. Far from "writing Java code using a Scala compiler", there are real efficiencies to be gained by Scala today, such as type inference, improved generics, and traits. Oh, but maybe you're a Swing programmer? Let's do that too!
