NetBeans 6.1 Beta : Arrival of Groovy/Grails Plugins
posted Thursday, 20 March 2008
Select to see the whole image. | I have been buried in Solaris Containers -land and I have to say I'm really, really blown away at how light, fast and performant these the Solaris Containers are. I've also been looking at VMware and LDOMs - but Solaris Containers are a real pleasure. Anyway - this isn't the topic of this blog - no something equally interesting. I have been trying out Martin and Matthew's Groovy/Grails NetBeans plugins and I'm blown away with this as well. If you missed it - read Matthias Schmidt's blog. First, congratulations go to both Martin and Mathias - they have done an amazing piece of work (using another amazing piece of coding, GSF, by Tor Norby). Really tremendous. Note Matthias's blog shows some nice screenshots of method completion including JavaDoc display for both Groovy and Java, code folding, starting and stopping the Grails server, Groovy/ Grails location preference, importing existing Grails projects, marking of sourcecode errors, navigation of groovy sourcecode, customizing | Grails & server, starting Grails tasks and syntax highlighting. They are working on debugging support, multi-view for easy navigation and refactoring. This really is a tremendous work for the Groovy and Grails & NetBeans communities. I've been banging away at it and it seems to be holding up very well. |
