Hi @OliverwengFiltered,

I have a problem with adding support for Scala. You can read the details here.

One solution might be to not use isolate for the compilation of Scala programs but that would be a major security risk. I could add this option in the Judge0 API to compile only Scala programs outside of the isolate but you should know that I do not recommend doing that since the compilation of untrusted source code should be treated in the same way as execution from the security standpoint.

For now, I propose that we wait until the maintainers of isolate respond. I truly believe they can help.

Let me know what you think.

BR,
Herman

Hi @hermanzdosilovic

Thank you for the update. I agree that we should wait for isolate maintainer's response.

What about other languages' progress ?

Thanks
