... do nothing!

Big surprise, I've been procrastinating again. The Polyglot environment that I had set up in Eclipse wasn't quite right, so I spent most of last weekend fixing that. I managed to get a test language change to work; boolj is Java except that the keyword for boolean has been changed to bool, and the booljc was able to build a Java program that just declares a bool.

The first step I'm going to take in implementing a DS Java is to make a language that has a set of global variables in its own space, with get and set operations. (In other words, there'll be a singleton HashMap<Object> with a funny name, and the get and set operations will translate into HashMap.get and HashMap.set.) Building this will do something similar to what I want to achieve in a quick and dirty way, and it should get me comfortable working with the Polyglot framework.

Ready, set, ...

Finally set up the Eclipse environment for the JavaDS project for 511. It wasn't hard, I just had to do it.
