Java to Scala conversion
Hi.
I am not sure if this is the right forum for this post, so forgive me, if it isn't.
I just published a tool called Scalagen on GitHub : https://github.com/mysema/scalagen
Scalagen aims to convert Java to Scala sources. It is inspired by Jatran, but aims to be more modular and focusing more on idiomatic Scala than 100 % compilable code.
The results are to be seen as a starting point for a Java to Scala conversion effort, not as the final result.
The latest release contains a working Maven plugin, but SBT integration might be added in the future.
Br,
Timo Westkämper

Hi Timo,
In case you didn't find these already, I thought I'd point out a bit of prior art.
Basic support for this exists in the IntelliJ Scala Plugin. (Code [1] / Tests [2])
Before he started working on scalac itself, Paul Phillips tinkered with Scalify (Slides [3] / Video [4]), an IDE independent translator.

Re: Java to Scala conversion
Thanks for the links. I was aware of the Intellij Scala plugin, but not of Scalify.
I will look into the Scalify slides.
