1. Mastering Functions

A function is a mapping from one set, called a domain, to another set, called the codomain. A function associates every element in the domain with exactly one element in the codomain. In Scala, both domain and codomain are types.

Scala type which can only be extended by an object, not by a non-abstract type ...
scala> class Foo { self: Singleton => }
defined class Foo
scala> class Bar extends Foo
<console>:12: error: illegal inheritance;
self-type Bar does not conform to Foo's selftype Foo with Singleton
class Bar extends Foo

Playframework: Async, Reactive, Threads, Futures, ExecutionContexts

Asynchronicity is the price to pay, you better know what you're paying for...

Let's share some vocabulary first:

Thread: The primitive responsible of executing code on the processor, you can give an existing (or a new) Thread some code, and it will execute it. Normally you can have a few hundreds on a JVM, arguments that you can tweak your way out to thousands. Worth noting that multitasking is achieved when using multiple Threads. Multiple Threads can exist for a single processor in which case multitasking happens when this processor switches between threads, called context switching, which will give the impression of things happenning in parallel. An example of a direct, and probably naive, use of a new Thread in Java:

public class MyRunnable implements Runnable {
  public void run(){
 System.out.println("MyRunnable running");
def breakIf[T: ClassTag](assertion: => Boolean, args: NamedParam*): Unit =
if (assertion) break[T](args.toList)
// start a repl, binding supplied args
def break[T: ClassTag](args: List[NamedParam]): Unit = savingContextLoader {
val msg = if (args.isEmpty) "" else " Binding " + args.size + " value%s.".format(
if (args.size == 1) "" else "s"
)

Is socket.push(bytes) all you need to program Realtime Web apps?

Is socket.push(bytes) all you need to program Realtime Web apps?

One of the goals of Play2 architecture is to provide a programming model for what is called Realtime Web Applications.

Realtime Web Applications

Realtime Web Applications are applications that make use of Websockets, Server Sent Events, Comet or other protocols offering/simulating an open socket between the browser and the server for continuous communication. Basically, these applications let users work with information as it is published - without having to periodically ping the service.

There are quite a few web frameworks that target the development of this type of application: but usually the solution is to simply provide an API that allows developers to push/receive messages from/to an open channel, something like:
