New GMaven 1.0-rc-3-SNAPSHOT deployed; Please Test

[Jason Dillon]

I've just deployed a new set of snapshots for GMaven 1.0-rc-3-
SNAPSHOT.  This contains a bunch of stuff.  See the road-map for more  
details:

     http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MGROOVY?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:roadmap-panel

Anyways, just wanted folks to give this new snap a test and if its all  
happy happy I'm going to release it shortly.  So, please, please give  
it a try and let me know if anything breaks.

Thanks,

--jason

Hi Jason, 

Very cool! I'll switch a few of my builds over to the new version tomorrow and take it for a spin. I'm looking forward to trying out the new console and shell goals. Thanks for your effort!

All,

 

I know that developing in Groovy (and Grails) can reduce the costs over standard Java and Web Development.  I have a friend of mine, who is evaluating whether to pitch to upper management to do his next project in Groovy/Grails.    

 

Are there any studies or examples that you have to help justify/quantify  a cost savings (which I know there is a cost savings) to develop in Groovy from both the initial development phase and maintaining the Groovy codebase in the long run?  Since Groovy is dynamically typed, were there any additional test cases that you needed to run to prove that the code behaved as expected?

 

Thanks in advance,

Dan Sline

I think you should ask this on the grails user list. At last for Web
development you should get some data. If your doubts are about dynamic
typing, then you could maybe use some of the comparisons Rails vs. Java.
As fair/unfair they might be. There is for example
http://www.infoq.com/news/2006/11/tim-bray-intrinsics which is surely no
study. But I think the point, that a reduced code size reduces the
maintainance costs as well is something to think about. sure, Groovy is
not Ruby, but the code sizes are often comparable, and I know that a
program in Groovy often takes less than 40% of statements than Java.

Well, that's no direct help at all, but maybe a hint

Hi Jason,

What repo did you deploy the snapshots for 1.0-rc-3 too? 

Thanks

Will give it a try with GB 0.7-SNAPSHOT and let you know. Like the new console upgrade :-)

Looks good to me.   I am using it for the Maven Findbugs plugin as well as the SHITTY plugin and all is fine here.

Okay, so far no negative news.  If this is still the case tomorrow I am going to publish the release... so if you have any problems with the latest snapshot, lemme know NOW :-)
