The Windows-Installer for Groovy 1.7-Beta-2 can now be downloaded from the Groovy Website (direct link). It takes care of the gory details of a Windows installation, copying files, setting environment variables and file associations.
It contains the Groovy 1.7-Beta-2 Binaries, API Docs and a PDF snapshot of the Wiki, the native launcher, Gant 1.8.1, Scriptom 1.6.0, and the Griffon Builders. These contain, among others, GFXBuilder, SwingXBuilder and JideBuilder in versions compatible to Griffon 0.1.2. The installation of everything but the binaries including the native launcher is optional.
Currently supported languages for the installer are english, german, spanish, french and brazilian portuguese.
We're pleased to announce the release of Groovy 1.7-beta-2!
This is the last release before the Release Candidate cycle, towards our final 1.7 release.
Although we're not formally into the RC cycle, this release is already almost exclusively about bug fixing. However, there's one last new feature added into the mix: customizable boolean coercion.
To learn more about this feature, I've added a new paragraph in the
release notes, in the section about "Groovy Truth" customizations.
You can download Groovy 1.7-beta-2 or view the JIRA release notes.
Thanks a lot to all involved!
The Windows-Installer for Groovy 1.6.5 can now be downloaded from the Groovy Website (direct link). It takes care of the gory details of a Windows installation, copying files, setting environment variables and file associations. This version of the installer checks whether you have a 32-bit or 64-bit installation, and the native launcher executables are only installed for the 32-bit version (until we have 64-bit versions of the nativelauncher).
The installer contains the Groovy 1.6.5 Binaries, API Docs and a PDF snapshot of the Wiki, the native launcher, Gant 1.8.0, Scriptom 1.6.0, and the Griffon Builders. These contain, among others, GFXBuilder, SwingXBuilder and JideBuilder in versions compatible to Griffon 0.1.2. The installation of everything but the binaries including the native launcher is optional.
Currently supported languages for the installer are english, german, spanish, french and brazilian portuguese.
The Groovy development team has just released Groovy 1.6.5.
This new release is mainly a bug-fix release, no significant new feature in this version.
A second beta of our upcoming Groovy 1.7 branch will also be released very soon.
You can download Groovy at the usual place.
And you can learn more about all the bugs fixed in our JIRA release notes.
Thanks to everybody who contributed to that release, and thanks to our user community for its always great and constructive feedback for improving Groovy.
Enjoy and have a nice weekend!
