Paul,
I'm having a go at giving this release a spin by updating Geb's build to
use it but unfortunately I'm not having any luck with trying to use the
groovy-all artifact. I understand from the earlier thread about updates to
the build on the dev list that the jar for that artifact is not published
and it's supposed to just be a dependency only aritfact which will be
useful for resolving all of Groovy's modules.
To quote you:

via Maven or Gradle and you'll automatically get the multiple required
equivalent jars of the current single groovy-all jar.
Unfortunately this is not the case. Given a simple build like:
plugins {
id 'groovy'
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.5.0-rc-1'
}
and an empty Groovy class in the main source set when running `gradle
build` I'm getting:
Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':compileClasspath'.
> Could not find groovy-all.jar (org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.5.0-rc-1).
Searched in the following locations:
https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/codehaus/groovy/groovy-all/2.5.0-rc-1/groovy-all-2.5.0-rc-1.jar
I tried changing the dependency to '
org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.5.0-rc-1@pom' but while in that case
dependency resolution phase succeeds the build itself then fails with:
Cannot infer Groovy class path because no Groovy Jar was found on class
path: configuration ':compileClasspath'
I do not see any of the modules apart from groovy-all itself being added to
the configuration when running `gradle dependencies --configuration
compile`:
compile - Dependencies for source set 'main'.
\--- org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.5.0-rc-1
Am I doing something wrong or is the way forward not using groovy-all
anymore and explicitly depending on only the used modules?
Cheers,
Marcin
