Convert the xquery bundle to Kotlin

[JohannesLichtenberger]

As it has not too many classes we can try to convert the project into a Kotlin bundle, as I really like my first few steps with Kotlin, especially with Coroutines...

[JohannesLichtenberger]

Or at least use Kotlin besides Java and probably build a great DSL

Hi Johannes,

this issue looks like a good issue to work in into Kotlin. Can I pick it up?

BR Manfred

[JohannesLichtenberger]

Sure, give it a try. I might however, in the meantime work a bit on the Java module (for instance adding AST rewrite rules for Brackit :-))

[JohannesLichtenberger]

@ManfredNentwig we'd also need a Kotlin based CLI and a client, maybe that makes even more sense to work on.

[ManfredNentwig]

Ok, that's fine for me.

I think that there should be new Tickets for the client and the CLI. What do you think?

[JohannesLichtenberger]

Yes, true :-)

[ManfredNentwig]

Ok. I stop working on this ticket.

[JohannesLichtenberger]

I've created the other two tickets, if you like to work on one of them.

can i work on this issue

Hi @JohannesLichtenberger I would like to work on this issue, so could you please assign me? Also I see a lot of code to change for this, so I hope you don't mind if I submit multiple PRs to divide the migration to kotlin by sections in the bundle.

[JohannesLichtenberger]

Hi @artwo, what do you think about instead to providing a Kotlin based client for the HTTP-server first or a Kotlin DSL?

[artwo]

@JohannesLichtenberger sounds good, please assign me to the respective issue!

[JohannesLichtenberger]

Can you comment over here? I can assign you afterwards :-)
