java scala maven,在Java Maven项目中使用Scala类的编译错误

I have a java maven project , i installed scala plugin for eclipse and added scala nature to my project . Now , i have written some custom scala Actors and some other utility classes .I am using these scala classes in my java code . while writing the code , it doesn't throw any errors .But , when i do maven clean /build , it throws compilation error's like below

11/8/11 10:45:23 AM : [ERROR] ............\Simple.java:[86,10] cannot find symbol

symbol : variable ExecutorObject

location: class com.ms.scala.Simple

11/8/11 10:45:23 AM : [INFO] 2 errors

11/8/11 10:45:23 AM : [INFO] -------------------------------------------------------------

11/8/11 10:45:23 AM : Build errors for Project; org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:2.3.2:compile (default-compile) on project : Compilation failure

Eclipse IDE : helios -3.5 , Scala - 2.9.2 which comes with the plugin

i guess there is a custom compiler configuration for doing this ? i also have an other newbie question

how do you start scala actor directly in java and send a message to it ? all i can see is the act() method . i want to do this

actor {

CustomActor ! Message

}

in java

thank you

For the first part, have you added the scala compilation step to your maven pom? Have you added the maven-scala-plugin to your pom?

For the second part, as Mirco says, there is no simple way to define an Actor in Java. You'll have to define it in Scala, but you can then start it and send messages to it in Java.

Simply call start() on the instance, and then you should be able to pass messages to it using the ! method. This will be available in java, but it is called $bang.
