156 +== How to Use Scala Collections with WebObjects ==
157 +
158 +One of the benefits of Scala is its very powerful, concurrency-ready collection classes - primarily ##List##, ##Map##, ##Seq## and ##Set##.
159 +Employing these instead of ##NSArray## and ##NSDictionary## in WebObjects/EOF may be challenging.
160 +
161 +But one may modify the EO templates to produce API such as:
162 +
163 +{{code}}
164 +
165 +def movies: NSArray[EOGenericRecord] = {
166 + storedValueForKey(_Studio.Keys.MOVIES).asInstanceOf[NSArray[EOGenericRecord]]
167 +}
168 +
169 +def moviesList: List[EOGenericRecord] = {
170 + movies.objects.toList
171 +}
172 +
173 +{{/code}}
