Note from asker:
| Tem certeza? Veja: X is often referred to as a scripting language—and it works very well for scripting. It’s a mistake to label X purely in those terms, though. It can be precompiled into Java bytecode, be integrated into Java applications, power web applications, add an extra degree of control within build files, and be the basis of whole applications on its own—X is too flexible to be pigeon-holed. What we can say about X is that it is closely tied to the Java platform. |
