For anyone curious, here is the migration guide for when 0.5.0 is finally released, so you can get an idea on the changes: https://github.com/aikar/commands/wiki/Migrating-from-0.4.0-to-0.5.0
Well, for any brave testers... 0.5.0 has been deployed. Please see migration guide ^ and if anyone can confirm they've updated to it and not seeing problems, I'll start updating recommended version numbers. Note until I publish the versions as recommended, consider this a beta of a beta, so I may still introduce API breaks if I feel like I need to, but shouldn't be anything large.
I believe that this framework should push kotlin support over java support because I wanna shill Kotlin because... errrm.... SCREW YOUR OPINIONS or something like that. *adjusts tie*
Annnnndddd now everyone is triggered and turning a simple light hearted exchange into a back and forth argument.... Damn I love the spigot community, never ceases to impress... And also no, Kotlin isn't shitty...
It's almost as if this entire kotlin thing is a joke... Except for MiniDigger, he actually loves living in the past, heck; he even uses Cobol! So, he has a hatred for anything that's been developed after his own birthday
> assuming cobol is not the future > assuming kotlin is the future dude, you know that the foundation of our entire economy is build upon cobol, right? cobol is what keeps this world spinning!
Aren't you working on replacing a massive chunk of that at your company *because* it's what old and nobody really wants to touch it anymore? ;P
we are not activly working on migration stuff away from the mainframe, no. we actually still develop new applications in cobol on the mainframe. we are switching j2e platforms and while at that modernising our whole pipeline. we get proper eclipse (not the bastared ibm version), jboss instead of websphere, git instead of svn, maven instead of our own crappy solution that would just checkout all dependencies into your workspace as source. we even get future stuff like jenkins and docker
Those pushing for kotlin are saying it from a more jokish perspective as its a running irc thing about kotlin "being superior to Java. " They know that a kotlin version isn't going to improve usability of this framework.
