Groovy is a powerful, optionally typed, and dynamic language, with static-typing and static compilation capabilities. It offers a concise syntax and integrates smoothly with any existing Java application.
The Spring Framework provides a dedicated ApplicationContext that supports a Groovy-based
Bean Definition DSL. For more details, see
The Groovy Bean Definition DSL.
Further support for Groovy, including beans written in Groovy, refreshable script beans, and more is available in [dynamic-language].
