How complex could be to compile Java?

[jabrena]

Hi,

I was reviewing concept in multiple Kotlin projects and I would like to do the same stuff with Java.
How complex could be the configuration/change of this project in order to compile Java examples?

Currently if I try to compile Java in any example:

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("This will be printed");
    }
}

https://blog.jetbrains.com/kotlin/2018/04/embedding-kotlin-playground/

I receive the following errors:

Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Expecting member declaration
Function declaration must have a name

I would like to learn if it is possible to configure in some way current kotlin-playground to compile and run Java code.

Many thanks in advance

Juan Antonio

Hey, that server supports only Kotlin code and I have no plans to implement a Java version. :(

Hi,

If I fork the project, some orientation to modify the project to compile with Java?

No objections from my side :) It will be good for the community 👍

I will review the whole project as a starting point.
