Comment on Scala Macros: “Oh God Why?”parent

Comments

My experience has been that these features are great but not free. I often have to choose between writing expressive, elegant, DRY code that is mind-numbingly slow or writing Fortran in Scala. Much of the time our needs are better met by writing Fortran in Scala, but with a macro system it would at least be DRY Fortran.
