Does anyone have any useful advice/links to information about working with mp3 files in Groovy. I appreciate that this is just the same as working with Java libs, but wanted a simple solution to this problem: I want to load an mp3 via a URL and interrogate it. I'd like to test whether it exists and pull out the title, artist and defau...

Is there a way to execute a Groovy class by specifying the package with dots, as with java? Example: File ./my/package/MyClass.groovy: package my.package class MyClass { static void main(String[] args) { println "ok" } } > cd my/package my/package> groovy MyClass ok > cd ../.. > groovy my/package/MyClass.groovy ok > groovy ...

O Groovy Gurus, This code snippet runs in around 1 second for (int i in (1..10000000)) { j = i; } while this one takes almost 9 second for (int i = 1; i < 10000000; i++) { j = i; } Why is it so? ...
I am using Groovy's XmlSlurper to parse xhtml document (or sudo xhthml one), and I'm trying to get to the text nodes of the document but can't figure how, here is the code: import groovy.util.* xmlText = ''' <TEXTFORMAT INDENT="10" LEADING="-5"> <P ALIGN="LEFT"> <FONT FACE="Garamond Premr Pro" SIZE="20" COLOR="#001200" LETTERSPA...
I need to implement a web app, but instead of using relational database I need to use different SOAP Web Services as a back-end. An important part of application only calls web services and displays the result. Since Web Services are clearly defined in form of Operation: In parameters and Return Type it seems to me that basic GUI could b...
In my Groovy program, I have a list of lines and want to select a contiguous block of lines from the list. The first line of the desired block contains a particular string, and the last line (which I can include or not - it doesn't matter) contains a (different) marker string. Working code is below but surely there is a "groovier" way t...

I would like to open a webpage from groovy, dump the specified webpage and eventually dump the webpage behind an anchor tag. Does anybody has some sample code for this? ...
This is probably a very easy one for all SoapUI regulars. In a SoapUI mock service response script, how do I extract the value inside the request I'm replying to? Let's say the incoming request has <ns1:foo> <ns3:data> <ns3:CustomerNumber>1234</ns3:CustomerNumber> </ns3:data> </ns1:foo> How do I get the "1234" into a Groovy...
In Groovy, I have a parent class and a child class where the parent class's constructor tries setting the value of a field of the parent class using a closure as in the following code: try { def x = new ChildClass() } catch (ex) { ex.printStackTrace(System.err) } class ParentClass { private values = [] ParentClass(columnCount)...

I'm using IntelliJ Idea 8.1.2 for Grails development. The dynamic nature of Groovy is giving me a hard time debugging my code: I keep ending up in the internals of Groovy/Grails, i.e. CachedMethod, ExpandoMetaClass or the like. Is there a way for example to tell the Idea debugger to completely skip the Groovy/Grails internals while debu...
Hey guys, I think I am not the only one who is gonna ask this question next time. After some experience with RoR I am impressed with the power of dynamic languages. Lots of projects are still forced for different reasons to use a java technology stack though. Since testing is an important part of any project I would like to hear your e...
I'm trying to dynamically create domain objects in Grails and encountered the problem that for any property referencing another domain object the metaproperty tells me its type is "java.lang.Object" and not the expected type. For example: class PhysicalSiteAssessment { // site info Site site Date sampleDate Boolean rain...
Hi, I have a Groovy class similar to class MyClass { Foo foo } Under certain circumstances I don't want to initialize foo and want to stub out all the calls to it. Any methods that return a value should do nothing. I could do it like this: Foo.metaClass.method1 = {param -> } Foo.metaClass.method2 = { -> } Foo.metaClass.method3 = ...
