Yeah, helper functions are good. I think the blog software screwed up the formatting, I assume you had some indentation there?

You can get this:

scalac srcdir “src/main/scala” include “.scala”

Pretty easily.

Hey tom - slight suggestion:
val sc = scalac.srcdir(”src/main/scala”).srcfiles(
List(”Foo.scala”, “Bar.scala”))

could be

val sc = scalac
srcdir(”src/main/scala”)
srcfiles(List(”Foo.scala”, “Bar.scala”))

Kind of looks more build-ey (not sure if it works though). Probably more syntax tricks to use as well.

maybe have some helper functions to get listings:

val sc = scalac
srcdir(”src/main/scala”)
srcfiles( dir(”/src/scala”) include(”.scala”))

@Arioch: Yep, you’re correct, there’s also Maven. I’ll correct that.

I say go the “Obi-wan”, mainly because “Obi Obi” is anti scala => because it repeats itself!

>the only tool available currently is SAnt, and of course Ant itself.

maven ???
