The Ceylon language module containing the core definitions referred to by the [language specification][spec], along with some basic functionality of use to most programs: - The [[root package|package ceylon.language]] defines general-purpose functionality including support for [[numbers|Numeric]] and [[character strings|String]], [[streams|Iterable]] and [[sequences|Sequential]], [[exceptions|Throwable]], and [[null values|Null]]. - The Ceylon _metamodel_ is defined in [[package ...

Library providing general-purpose mutable lists, sets, and maps. The following interfaces define abstract mutable collection types: - [[MutableList]] is a mutable [[List]], - [[MutableSet]] is a mutable [[Set]], and - [[MutableMap]] is a mutable [[Map]]. These interfaces define abstract sorted collection types: - [[SortedSet]] is a sorted [[Set]], and - [[SortedMap]] is a sorted [[Map]]. In addition, dedicated [[Stack]] and [[Queue]] interfaces are defined, representing specialized kinds of ...

Group Ceylon Interop
Contains everything required to parse and serialise JSON data. Sample usage for parsing and accessing JSON: import ceylon.json { parse, Object = Object } String getAuthor(String json){ value parsedJson = parse(json); "author must be a string" assert(is Object parsedJson, is String author = parsedJson["author"]); return author; } Alternatively, this variation will result in an [[InvalidTypeException]] instead of an [[AssertionError]] if the input ...

API for accessing hierarchical file systems. Clients use [[Path]]s to obtain [[Resource]]s representing files or directories. `Path` contains many useful operations for manipulating paths: value path = parsePath("/Users/Trompon/Documents"); value child = path.childPath("hello.txt"); value sibling = child.siblingPath("goodbye.txt"); value parent = path.parent; The attribute [[resource|Path.resource]] of `Path` is used to obtain a `Resource`. It is usually necessary to narrow a ...

This module provides an arbitrary-precision integer numeric type. The type [[Whole|ceylon.whole::Whole]] is a first-class numeric type and support all the usual mathematical operations: Whole i = wholeNumber(12P); Whole j = wholeNumber(3); Whole n = i**j + j; print(n); //prints 1728000000000000000000000000000000000003

Ceylon Random provides: - a pseudorandom number generator ([[DefaultRandom]]), - toplevel utility functions to shuffle streams or arrays ([[randomize]] and [[randomizeInPlace]]), and - an easy to implement interface for use by third party random number generators ([[Random]]). To generate random numbers, create and use an instance of [[DefaultRandom]]: // Create a random number generator value random = DefaultRandom(); // Print a pseudorandom Float in the range 0.0 to 1.0: print ...

Defines a platform-neutral API for writing log messages. _Important! By default, no log writer function is registered, and so nothing is logged. Read on to learn how to properly configure logging for your application_ ## Adding logging to your module Log messages are written to a [[Logger]]. A canonical `Logger` instance for a package or module may be obtained by calling [[logger]]. Logger log = logger(`module hello`); The methods [[Logger.fatal]], [[Logger.error]], [[Logger.warn]], ...

This module allows you to convert between text and binary forms of data. For efficiency of I/O (see the `ceylon.io` module), [[Buffer]]s are the core representation which [[ceylon.buffer.codec::Codec]]s output from the encode/decode operations, but it's still easy to get more general types like [[Array]]s and [[String]]s. Input to the operations can be any stream type. [[ceylon.buffer.codec::Codec]]s are symmetrical, as any data that is [[encode|ceylon.buffer.codec::StatelessCodec.encode]]d ...

The `ceylon.test` module is a simple framework to write repeatable tests. Tests execute the code of the module under test and can make assertions about what it does. For example, * do functions, when called with certain arguments, return the expected results? * do classes behave as required? * etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------ #### CONTENT 1.

Group Ceylon HTTP
This module defines APIs for: - representing and manipulating URIs, - connecting to HTTP servers, and - defining HTTP endpoints and executing HTTP servers. The [[ceylon.net.uri::Uri]] class supports connection to an HTTP URI. A new `Uri` may be obtained using [[ceylon.net.uri::parse]]. void getit(String uriAsString) { Uri uri = parse(uriAsString); Request request = uri.get(); Response response = request.execute(); print(response.contents); } A ...

This module provides four APIs: - `ceylon.math.decimal`—an arbitrary-precision decimal numeric type, - `ceylon.math.whole`—an arbitrary-precision integer numeric type, - `ceylon.math.float`—various common mathematical functions for floating-point numbers, and - `ceylon.math.integer`—various common functions for integers. The types [[Whole|ceylon.math.whole::Whole]] and [[Decimal|ceylon.math.decimal::Decimal]] are first-class numeric types and support all the usual ...

Support for promises. If an operation cannot return a value immediately without blocking, it may instead return a _promise_ of the value. A promise is an object that represents the return value or the thrown exception that the operation eventually produces. Such an operation is sometimes called a _long-running operation_. This module provides following abstractions: - The [[Completable]] interface abstracts objects which promise one or more values, accommodating the possibility of failure. - The ...

API for running native commands in a child process. Clients simply create `Process`es using the `createProcess()` method. The new process starts executing immediately. Process process = createProcess { command = "ls"; arguments = ["-l"]; path = home; }; By default, the standard input, output, and error streams of the new child process are piped to and from the current process by exposing a `Writer` and `Reader`s. if (is Reader reader = process.output) { ...
