This is an idea of how to use it:
1) Define an interface using the Haxe language (just assume syntax
is
correct):
interface IHotRodClient {
get(Object k)
put(Object k, Object value)
etc
}
2) Write the TCK in terms of that interface. The Haxe language has
lots of
libraries, including unit tests:
class TCK {
test1( ) { ... }
test2( ) { ... }
etc
void Main(IHotRodClient client)
new TCK(client).run()
}
3) Cross compile the TCK and distribute it as jar, dll, js, etc
4) Each Hot Rod client consumes the artifact above
5) Each Hot Rod runs the TCK passing its implementation of IHotRodClient
6) Profit
It takes 6 steps to profit?!
I think the idea of writing the TCK once and being able to generate the code in the native
language of the client is a great idea. The issue will be when we have a Hot Rod client in
a language that Haxe doesn't support. (Go?)
