Java 8 did not add all the missing elements. It did not add even the most of them nor the most important. Sure, it added some, but I doubt it is 5% of what Scala has to offer, and I doubt they are the things that people primary choose Scala for. Also, even if we compare the features that Java 8 added, e.g. lambdas - they are nowhere near as nice to use as in Scala, and they don't play so nice with the rest of the language as it is in Scala. IMHO Java 8 will only help Scala in becoming more popular, by improving Scala's performance and Java interop. |
