Speaking of which, I've played around with WOGroovy and I was pretty

framework I
would be worried about adopting it and then hitting a wall halfway
through a
project because of some hard to track down bug, but given it's
simplicity, I
think it would be fairly straightforward to track down and fix any
bugs that
might've been overlooked by the developer. All in all, it seems
like an
excellent and very useful framework.
That developer would be me. If you have any issues feel free to let
me know. ;)
Good to know. I hadn't heard of WOGroovy until this morning and had
recently been looking at incorporating Groovy for the purposes of
rapid turnaround.
As you have observed WOGroovy is a very small veneer to make using
groovy with WebObjects seamless. Outside the rapid turnaround code,
which is just some classloader magic, the WOGroovy framework itself
doesn't actually do much but inject some helper categories into the
metaclass registry. The fixes for the NS* collection handling are
the only really important bits, and they don't need to be "loaded",
they just need to be in the classpath somewhere.
Do you have any example projects (intermixing standard java and groovy)?
