We propose to add support in JPPF for dynamic languages based on the JVM, such as groovy, scala, clojure, etc.... It should even be possible with Javascript/Rhino, Jython and others.

I've already successfully tested with Groovy and Scala: - Implemented a Groovy/Scala wrapper around JPPFClient - Implemented a Groovy/Scala wrapper around JPPFTask and JPPFJob - I was able to submit jobs with tasks written in Groovy/Scala

Jython causes more difficulties, as the Jython runtime libraries do no work well with the JPPF class loader. See this forum thread for reference

Also Clojure required a modification of the code of its class loader for dynamically generated classes to worlk with the JPPF class loader. See this forum thread for reference
