I'm running a script made in Groovy from Soap UI and the script needs to generate lots of files. Those files have also in the name two numbers from a list (all the combinations in that list are different), and there are 1303 combinations available and the script generates just 1235 files. A part of the code is: filename = groovyUtils....
As a language how stable is Groovy? Do any big names use it? ...
I'm trying to figure out how to remove an item from a list in groovy from within a loop. static main(args) { def list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4] for(num in list1){ if(num == 2) list1.remove(num) } println(list1) } ...
Hi folks, I've a problem. I want to have nice dynamic groovy classes to represent an ugly XML structure (unfortunately JAXB, XmlBeans etc. is not possible). For this goal I need case-sensitive properties to map the element values from XML to my classes. But Groovy generates automatically lowercase property names due to the JavaBeans sp...

I'm trying to write my first groovy class. When I do so, Eclipse complains about syntax errors as though it's parsing a Java file. It wants semicolons on the end of each line, it doesn't recognize the "def" keyword, etc. I have both Groovy 1.7.5 and the latest Groovy Eclipse plugin installed. I have also converted the project to a Gr...

Ok, this should be easy... I'm new to groovy and I'm looking to implement the following logic: def testFiles = findAllTestFiles(); So far, I've come up with the code below which successfully prints all files names. However, instead of printing, I just need to put them into a collection. Of course, I could do this the old java way: ...

If I understand correctly, the purpose of groovy and grails are to execute without (visible) compilation. However, I have inherited some old grails code that I can't build any more. I can see the advantages of having a build.xml file for special purposes, but, considering that the programming nature of Grails is to run on the fly, does...
I have an relatively old Grails app that uses ant to build the application. In the test server it build without any problems, but when I try to run it on my PC, I get a consistent error: Caused by: jar:file:/C:/ant/apache-ant-1.8.0/lib/ant.jar!/org/apache/tools/ant/antlib.xml:37: Problem: failed to create task or type componentdef C...
Groovy has a nice operator for safe dereferencing, which helps to avoid NullPointerExceptions: variable?.method() The method will only be called, if variable is not null. Is there a way to do the same in Python? Or do I have to write if variable: variable.method()? ...
