mvn grails:create-app appName
I can’t say I don’t have anything against Maven, because I don’t like it. [...]
This just cracks me up.Here’s how to create a Grails app using the Grails command line:grails create-app demoAnd here’s how to create the app using the Maven command line:mvn org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:2.0-alpha-4:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.grails -DarchetypeArtifactId=grails-maven-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.1 -DgroupId=example -DartifactId=demo
Alright, no more Groovy posts for a while after this one. In fact, I hadn’t planned on posting about this again, but I thought it was worth mention.
From the last post, we saw the following results for parsing an XML dataset with about 450 simple elements in it 1,000 times:
Java: ~9 seconds
Groovy: ~28 seconds [...]
Following on from the previous post (and here’s the last post), here’s a very quick and dirty, completely unscientific, prone to error, your mileage may vary micro benchmark I did using the code in the last post.
Date set: a String containing roughly 450 XML elements in the form <contact name=”some name” email=”some email” />
Methodology: I [...]

Java code:
Groovy code:
Note that this reduction in complexity happens almost everywhere I choose to use Groovy over Java. Of course there are myriad other ways I could have done this in Java (I even [...]
