Quite some time ago I asked whether there are plans to
upgrade the
included version of Groovy from JSR-06 to the 1.0 release.
I never got an answer, and I see that no version change occurrred
in the last release candidate.
Is Groovy used in a standard installation and can I replace the
corresponding jar myself without breaking anything?
The general answer is "yes we would like to use it". I think the
reason we haven't migrated yet is because we were worried it would
break something and we wanted to release 1.0 ASAP. But personally I
agree that we should have tried the upgrade earlier.
It's a bit late now to try the upgrade as we're in RC stages for the
1.0 release but we should definitely do it in early 1.1 releases.
I don't know if anything will break but it's very likely the core
will need to change to work with groovy 1.0. If others know more,
please chime in.
Thanks
