Integrating a ruby environment into a Java maven project is quite easy. I recently built BlenderCss, a java project that needed to use the Compass gem. To solution was to utilize the gem via jruby.

BlenderCss is now available on maven central.

Closure Stylesheets is now available on maven central as a third-party upload.

In google closure, understanding the goog.ui.Component lifecycle is a important part of understanding the library. The component provides a interface to manage all the aspects of a given element.

Managing events in the lifecycle of a component can be tricky, the standard approach is to use the getHandler() and to listen and unlisten to each class.
