grails 1.3.1 Error executing script GenerateViews:

Question

Here is the lay of the land. I have an app that I have created. I uninstalled hibernate, installed app-engine plugin and am using jdo.

I am able to create a domain-class but the when I run generate-all I run into the following error.

Oh and I did try just generating the controller for the domain class and that seemed to work fine but then after that I try just generate-views on the same domain class and I also get the following error.

Answer 1

It seems that the GenerateViews script has a dependency on some classes from the hibernate plugin (org.hibernate.mapping.Value). I'd try putting the hibernate plugin back in place to run these scripts.

Can the two persistence plugins coexist?

Answer 2

The GenerateViews.groovy script appears to have a dependency on the hibernate plugin. A workaround is to re-install the hibernate plugin, then prevent it from being used at runtime by adding the following to Config.groovy

plugin {
    excludes = ["hibernate"]
}
