Manifold provides this feature and supports IntelliJ IDEA and Android Studio. https://github.com/manifold-systems/manifold/tree/master/man...

Manifold already provides this feature: https://github.com/manifold-systems/manifold/tree/master/man... With an article having the same name as your post: https://github.com/manifo…

Not every day you get your wish. https://github.com/manifold-systems/manifold/tree/master/man...

Recovery?

They mostly have to do with design decisions / implementation details, not issues with extension methods in general.

Ding!

I believe Manifold already does this. https://github.com/manifold-systems/manifold/tree/master/man...

There are good reasons. When you begin writing IDE support you will discover that: 1. Without annotations you’ll be forced to index all static methods based on the first argument, …

My sentiments exactly. The “API designers should control their APIs” one is my favorite and one of the more ridiculous things I’ve heard him say, which is saying something. It’s be…

Nice redirection of focus there.

Limit training to stackoverflow input and wham! we have automated modern programming ;)

They are good about supporting latest JDK release and all LTS releases, going back to 8. It’s Oracle’s saber rattling lately concerning plugins like Lombok and Manifold that make m…

I recall learning Prolog for a CS class back in the late 80s to model problems using its backtracking (chaining) algorithm with facts. Sometime later Rete-based rules languages bec…

The manifold project integrates code gen directly into the compiler. The GraphQL[1] module is amazing. The JSON[2] module for REST looks similarly impressive, but I haven’t persona…

Not sure what you’re getting at, sharing here does for you exactly what you would do with explicit composition.
