FeaturesAndGoals

A short list of goals for RubyFlux, along with a list of currently-supported features.

Goals:

• Convert as much of Ruby syntax and core class behavior into Java source as possible.
• Avoid any external library requirement; generate everything needed for a standalone app.
• Integrate with Java as seamlessly as possible, so it mimics JRuby's Java integration.
• Avoid the need for dynamic dispatching frameworks or invokedynamic.
• Minimize the amount of code generated.

Features currently implemented:

• Generate a Java source file per script and classes within those scripts.
• Basic methods and syntax are supported, along with a smattering of core classes and methods.
