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。

提供使用Groovy语言的语法,程序库和编程指导的相关信息
Illustrates larger examples of using Groovy in the Wild with a focus on applications or tasks rather than just showing off the features, APIs or modules. |
Contains information mainly of interest to the developers involved in creating Groovy and its supporting modules and tools.
Contains information of relevance to those writing developer tests or systems and acceptance tests.
Covers topics which you don't need to worry about initially when using Groovy but may want to dive into to as you strive for Guru status. |

I'm very happy to announce that the japanese edition of Groovy in Action has just hit the shelves.
Please visit the publisher's page or amazon.jp.
Kazuchika Sekiya and his five friends did an awesome job in not only translating the book "as is" but also updating it to the latest Groovy version (1.5.6), adapting all listings and explanations. Furthermore, they went through all known errata of the original version.
Above all, they did not blindly translate word-by-word but challened the meaning of every sentence, asked for clarification, and came up with improved wordings that avoid any kind of ambiguity.
It should not be left unmentioned that the translators work for Sun Microsystems Japan in their day job but did all that hard work in their spare time.
I'm very thankful for the experience of having seen this translation develop and now seeing the grace of the final result. Let's spread the word about Groovy!
Thank you, guys - domo arigato gozaimasu!
After over a year of poking and prodding at the various parts of desktop Java the Groovy swing developers are proud to announce the first release of Griffon, a Grails-like tool for Swing development. While not yet industrial strength we felt it was important to put out a release so people can get a feel for what Griffon is and where it will be going. And since all good computer scientists start counting from zero, 0.0 seemed to be the perfect release number.
What are some of the highlights of Griffon?
- A Grails like build system for desktop apps, including targets to run the application.
- A directory structure that rewards MVC separation of code.
- Use of Groovy programming language features to reinforce MVC separation (builders, @Bindable annotation, metaclass method injection, scripts, etc).
- A view layer based on Groovy's SwingBuilder, allowing for a declarative layout of GUI code.
- An infrastructure to allow seamless injection of other widget libraries. JIDE and SwingX are supported out of the box.
- Automatic packaging and signing for WebStart, Applet, and traditional application deployment.
Why call it Grails-like instead of rails-like? The structure of the directories and some of the design idioms do have a heritage back to Ruby on Rails, but Griffon is more inspired by Grails than it was by Rails. And by "inspired" I mean "taking large chunks of Grails code to bootstrap the codebase" (thanks to the ASL 2.0 this is permissible). Not all Grails features have been brought over yet. Plugins and GORM are two notable standouts that we would like to add in future releases.
To download the current release please visit the wiki page at Download Griffon and follow the links. There is also an installation guide and a quick start tutorial on the wiki as well.
The distribution also comes with three demo apps developed in Griffon: Greet, a Twitter client; GrailsSnoop, a swing wrapper around the Grails docs; and WidgetKitchenSink, a demo app of various widgets supported by Griffon. These applications live in the samples directory and can be run directly by "griffon run-app".
There is clearly much more that can be done, and this is just the beginning. Future releases hope to bring in client side GORM, pack200 support, plugin support, and more GUI libraries. Like most open source projects external contributions and participation are always welcome. For questions and comments there is a griffon-user@groovy.codehaus.org mailing list set up.
