Hello, I spent some more time trying to see if I could get IntelliJ to handle groovyScript files without making changes to build.gradle, but cannot find any other workarounds.
Although we don't generally want to put lots of IDE specific code into our sources, we do seem to do this occasionally since we include OfbizDslDescriptorForIntelliJ.gdsl and OfbizDslDescriptorForEclipse.dsld to improve the developer experience. Further, the change I'm proposing isn't really IntelliJ specific, it is just the only way I can get IntelliJ to recognise groovyScript files. Therefore if there are no objections to this change, and if no issues are reported by other IDE users, I'll merge it in a few days. Thanks, Dan.
