Chapter 12. Groovy integration

PDF

Seam has a great capability for Rapid Application Development (RAD). Seam allows you to utilize dynamic languages with your existing platform, while retaining compatibility with standard Java APIs. Static and dynamic languages are integrated, so there is no need for context-switching, and you can use the same annotations and APIs to write a dynamic Seam component as you would for a regular Seam component.

12.1. Groovy introduction

Groovy is an agile, Java-based dynamic language, with additional features inspired by Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk. Being Java-based, with Java objects and classes, Groovy is easy to learn and integrates seamlessly with existing Java libraries and frameworks.
