I’m starting yet another project at work using the grails framework. Loving the RAD. Will need to dig a little more into Gorm to map contraints between classes/tables. Can’t wait till grails 1.2 is final and it is in the maven reporitoty. Still using 1.1.x

Famous last words I posted on twitter today, “been (surprisingly?) productive today. I’m going to finish ahead of schedule ” No sooner did I say that when Jetbrain’s IDEA started to flake on me (see above). At first I thought it was a disk issue (logs pointed to the vfs) , so I wasted an hour or 2 going down that path. Disk is fine OSX disc permissions are fine…etc. I’m looking at other possibilities but I do know that I don’t have to stop development since this a maven project that lives in our subversion repositoriy. This is the point where all the whining and b**tching about doing things The Maven Way is silenced in favor of the pure joy of using a “standard” project structure . Both IDEA (as of 8.x) and NetBeans can open Maven Projects as IDE projects with all the classpath info intact. So as I wait for the Netbeans 6.5.1 to download I know that I should be ok to pick up where I left off. If this had been in some IDE specific project structure, this would have been a real pain in my@$$.

From the man ( Guillaume Laforge) himself:
As I said on my blog, and as is said on the FAQ, the license of Groovy
will stay Apache 2.
No worries to have there.To make a parallel, it’s not because SpringSource acquired Covalent
(the main Tomcat committers) that they made Tomcat change its license.
Same goes with Groovy: Groovy will stick to ASL 2.
Hey,
I love the concept. Seems a lot simpler than Amazon EMC2, which I am still having difficulty grokking. But for now only Python is supported, which seems … different. I’d love to see Java running on that bad boy. If you guys are of the same opnion, let your voice be heard: http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/list

It’s in my doc. But I’m scared to try it. Pretty though, very pretty.
Quietly, Shale seeks merger with MyFaces
Community, frameworks, java, jsf

The JSF framework, Shale created by Tomcat and Struts founding father, Craig McClanahan will begin merging assets of the project into the Apache Myfaces project. It was once considered to be the natural (or unatural depending on what side of the JSF divide you were on) successor to to the venerable Struts Web Application Framework. After some controversy on the future of Struts 2.0 (see Struts in Flux) it became its own top level Apache project. Now, with some of the hype fading from JSF and competition from the hot new JSF/EJB3 framework, Jboss Seam, activity on the Shale project has dropped dramatically. Well, I’m wishing everyone good luck on the merger and hoping that we see some great things coming out of MyFaces in the future.
