Hi,
some time ago Tim [Fennell, we're probably not on a first name basis :)]
mentioned writing action beans in Groovy. I wasn't really interested in this
at the time, since changes in my action beans tend to be accompanied by
changes in my service layer (which makes me restart my application anyway).
But recently, I found that Spring allows you to write your beans in Groovy
as well (see
http://static.springframework.org/spring/docs/2.5.x/reference/dynamic-language.html,
the support has been there since 2.0, but apparently I had more important
things to read at the time, because I read about it not that long ago). Now,
when changes in my service layer don't cause me to restart the server, I'm
much more interested in having the same support from my navigation layer.
So I'm thinking of creating this functionality. Before diving in, I'm having
a couple of questions for the community:
* is anyone (still) interested? I'm willing to spend quite some time to make
this happen, but if I'm the only one who will be using it, I'll probably
take a couple of shortcuts here and there.
* what would be the best way to make this available? Could it be a patch for
the main project (would it be accepted? I'd really like to avoid a situation
like STS-183), or would it be better to create something more or less
standalone, to include it in StripesStuff?
* at the moment, I'm thinking about reloading action beans (and its url
bindings, of course); does anyone have other suggestions?
Levi
