Ahead of tomorrow’s expected announcement and amidst last week’s QCon London conference, InfoQ received an invitation to sit down with Martin Odersky to discuss both Typesafe Stack 2.0 and Scala. In the following interview Martin discusses the future of Scala, draws the comparisons between F# and Scala and addresses, once and for, all the question of breaking binary compatibility.
Martin, is of course, the creator of the Scala programming language as well as the Chairman, co-founder and Chief Architect of Typesafe. He is also the author of "Programming in Scala," creator of javac and scalac, and was a student of Niklaus Wirth, the creator of Pascal, at ETH Zürich where he received his doctorate.
