Hi all, The Groovy development team is happy to announce the release of a *third beta for Groovy 2.4*.
This release contains various bug fixes and minor improvements. I'll highlight the fact that you can now use *multiple labels on your statements* (instead of just one). With beta-3 now, many of the unneeded synthetic methods generated by Groovy are not generated anymore, reducing the number of methods nicely yielding *smaller bytecode*. This is of particular interest for Android developers limited in the overall number of methods used in Android applications You can read the JIRA release notes <https://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10242&version=20544> and go straight to the download area <http://beta.groovy-lang.org/download.html> ! Keep on groovy-ing, and welcome back to work or school if you were in vacations this (northern hemisphere) summer :-) -- Guillaume Laforge Groovy Project Manager Pivotal, Inc.
