Make Ceylon declarations visible from Java code in same project

Split from #292.

This is also needed to make Ceylon declarations visible from XML files in Android projects.

Wait, isn't this going in 1.3.0? I thought it was part of the Android support priority issues? How hard is that issues estimated at?

It's not that easy to implement, and requires lots of testing.

Define not that easy? Are we talking days, weeks or months?

FroMage avatar Aug 29 '16 12:08 FroMage

I'd say at least a week

@gavinking WDYT?

Well as I understand it, the compiler/IDE still doesn't fully completely support the compilation of Java files that reference Ceylon files in the the same project. If that's the case, it doesn't seem completely unreasonable to slip this issue.

(However, I agree that for Android development the lack of support for navigation from XML is a pain.)

Well, it's more that the file shows an error, because the declaration is considered missing. It also causes an error when running the application saying the activity could not be found. It works, though, so the error is misleading.

As for Java files that reference Ceylon files in the same project, it seems orthogonal to this issue, IMO.
