Javascript Continuous Integration with Google Closure

A long time ago, Ben learned, accepted, and loved continuous integration and Object-Oriented code organization...you know with classes and packages and stuff.  Then he had a decent sized Javascript project and it all went to hell.

Then Ben breathed a sigh of relief when he found Google Closure and used it with ANT and Hudson.  He was able to sort and seperate his Javascript into many many classes and packages which Closure was nice enough to compile together into a nice little package.

Not only was it minified into one file so Ben didn't have to fear the Javascript "We're not an OO language we're Prototypical" purists, but Closure also kindly pointed out the things that would probably fail in IE.  The browser also thanked him that it didn't have to download his entire library of like 70 .js files all at once.

And Ben liked it a great deal, so he wanted to tell some cool people at cfObjective about it.
