dependencies{
    compile 'org.slf4j:slf4j-api:1.7.5'
    compile "org.scala-lang:scala-library:2.10.1"
    testCompile "junit:junit:4.11"
}

task run(type: JavaExec, dependsOn: classes) {
    main = 'Main'
    classpath sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
    classpath configurations.runtime
}

src/main/scala/Main.scala

object Main extends App {

GlassFish Administration: The REST of the Story Part II - Deploying Apps Using Scala

In a previous post (far too long ago :), I began showing off the RESTful administration API in GlassFish v3. In GlassFish Administration: The REST of the Story Part I, I showed the basics of the API, what to send, what you get back, etc. In this post, I want to show a practical use of the API, namely, deploying an application, and this time, for no particular reason other than I’m trying to learn the language, we’ll do it in Scala.
