Groovy como você nunca viu

4. It's Groovy
● Groovy is object-oriented dynamic language by default, but…
… can be optionally typed;
… can be static type checking with @TypeChecked;
● dynamic != interpreted;
● static compilation with @CompileStatic;
● Groovy compiles down to JVM bytecode;
● Script vs Classes;

5. A little bit of history
2003 2007 2008
1.0
2011 2012
2.0
2014 20152005

6. Compilation phases
1. Initialization (read source files and config compiler)
2. Parsing (text → concrete syntax tree; Antlr2)
3. Conversion (CST → AST) @Grab
4. Semantic Analysis (resolve classes, consistency and grammar) @Lazy @Builder @Field @Log
5. Canonicalization (AST finalize and last chance to use AST) @Delegate @ToString @Immutable
6. Instruction Selection (instruction set for bytecode / type checking) @CompileStatic @TypeChecked
7. Class Generation (create bytecode in memory, AST → bytecode)
8. Output (binary output .class to file system)
9. Finalization (perform cleanup tasks, unused today!)

7. Awesome!
● Optional (Typing, Semicolons, Parentheses, public & return keyword);
● Native syntax constructs (Closures, Lists, Maps, Regex, Ranges)
● Boilerplate mode off; (String, BigDecimal, Null, Truth, Switch)
● Java Interoperability & integration;
● Groovy Development Kit enhancements (GDK);
● DSL easy mode on;
● Builders;
● AST Transformations;

8. Groovy’s nature
programming language…
as type safe as you want it
static type checking
as fast as you need
static compilation
as functional as you make it
closures, immutable, etc…
