I see. I'm working under the assumption that it is possible to "pre-compile" Groovy into bytecode. If so, then the Groovy runtime theoretically shouldn't need to perform class generation, wouldn't need security privileges, and thus wouldn't require a signed applet. Is this accurate? Also, if Groovy is pre-compiled, is the Groovy JAR still required at deployment time? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JVM Languages" group.
