Groovy ...
- 是一个基于Java虚拟机的敏捷动态语言。
- 构建在强大的Java语言之上 并添加了从Python,Ruby和Smalltalk等语言中学到的诸多特征。
- 为Java开发者提供了现代最流行的编程语言特性,而且学习成本很低(几乎为零)。
- 支持DSL(Domain Specific Languages领域定义语言)和其它简洁的语法,让你的代码变得易于阅读和维护。
- Goovy拥有处理原生类型,面向对象以及一个Ant DSL,使得创建Shell Scripts变的非常简单。
- 在开发Web,GUI,数据库或控制台程序时 通过减少框架性代码 大大提高了开发者的效率。
- 支持单元测试和模拟(对象),可以简化测试。
- 无缝集成 所有已经存在的 Java对象和类库。
- 直接编译成Java字节码,这样可以在任何使用Java的地方 使用Groovy。
Groovy是一个充满创新理念具有创新精神的项目

JAX 是德国十分重要的Java技术会议(Java conference),每一年该组织都会召开会议评选最具创新精神的项目,评选委员会从40个提名项目中选择十个候选项目,许多优秀项目如Matisse GUI builder(NetBeans的一个插件,用于构建GUI程序)、Nuxeo(企业级内容管理解决方案)等都入围候选,最后Groovy赢得了1等奖!这是一个崇高的荣誉,我们感到非常高兴,特别是和许多非常优秀的项目一起竞赛。另外该奖项的上一期胜出者是Spring framework。
还有,由Dierk König创作出版的畅销书------《Groovy in Action》,也会作为奖品赠予Groovy社团,随后JAX将单独设置Groovy主题的会议进行颁奖。这些奖项证明并肯定了Groovy的创新价值,并说明Groovy在Java社团有不小的影响力。
Come and meet the Groovy and Grails developers at the Grails eXchange conference, 该会议专注于Groovy的发展、Grails以及JavaEE和Web2.0。
