Grails 2.2.0 Support in Eclipse


I am trying to create a grails 2.2.0 project using eclipse-jee-juno. It gives me an error

Groovy compiler level expected by the project does not match workspace compiler level. Project compiler level is: 1.8.X Workspace compiler level is 1.7.X Go to Project properties -> Groovy compiler to set the Groovy compiler level for this project.

Background: I have installed grails 2.2.0 and I am able to create and run a sample project/controller by using the command line (not eclipse)


Solution

  • Grails 2.x need groovy 1.8+ to work. In eclipse, right click your project, select 'properties' from menu and go to Groovy compiler, select groovy version 1.8.xxxx. Or you can go to 'preference' menu and change the global setting for groovy compiler version.
