Grails 0.5 – great new features
Great news – Grails 0.5 is now publicly released.
Full release notes are here but highlights for me include:
- Auto reloading of modified domain classes and transactional services, and quartz jobs. There isn’t much that won’t reload now, without restarting the dev web-app container!
- Everything has a log object provided for you now with zero effort
- URL mappings – set any url patterns you like to route to any controller/action and the taglibs that generate links do this mapping in reverse so your links are to nice URLs
- Command objects – validate form submissions that don’t related to domain classes directly etc.
Go get the latest version and have a play. Every version of Grails makes development more fun.
