Presentations
Real World Groovy
You are considering Groovy for your next project. You search the web for more information only to get conflicting or incomplete information. It's hard to distinguish FUD from fact. In this session, we go beyond the theoretical and discuss everything you want to know about using Groovy in a real world corporate Java project. This presentation is based upon four years of actual experience using Groovy as part of a large J2EE project at a Fortune 500 Insurance company as well as using Groovy and Grails on two medium-sized corporate projects.
The Groovy Eclipse Plugin
In this presentation, we will look at how you can begin using Groovy inside of Eclipse. Project setup, mixing Groovy and Java, and debugging will be covered. The presentation will also feature tips and tricks from real-world project development using the Groovy Eclipse plugin.
