Groovy support in SEAM

[idyoshin]

Good day,

I've reached the need to integrate Groovy into my application. I'm using seam-gen from seam-2.2.0.GA. First of all the generated build.xml file doesn't correctly supports groovy compiling so I've made following changes:

     <target name="compile" depends="init"
          description="Compile the Java and Groovy code" unless="eclipse.running">
          <groovyc classpathref="build.classpath"
               destdir="${jar.dir}">
               <src path="${src.model.dir}"/>
               <src path="${src.action.dir}"/>
               <javac deprecation="${javac.deprecation}"
                    nowarn="off" debug="${javac.debug}"/>
          </groovyc>
          
     </target>

    <target name="compiletest"  unless="eclipse.running" description="Compile the Java source code for the tests">
        <mkdir dir="${test.dir}"/>
         <groovyc classpathref="build.classpath"
               destdir="${test.dir}">
               <src path="${src.model.dir}"/>
               <src path="${src.action.dir}"/>
              <src path="${src.test.dir}"/>
               <javac deprecation="${javac.deprecation}"
                    nowarn="on" debug="${javac.debug}"/>
          </groovyc>
    </target>

this allowed to me using .groovy files with .java files together. system compiles perfectly and some dummy testing is done correctly: dummyService is in groovy and SprFizLicList in the java:

@Name("dummyService")
public class DummyService implements Serializable{

     @In(create=true)
     SprFizLicList sprFizLicList;
     
     @Logger
     org.jboss.seam.log.Log log;
     
     public void sayHello() {
          log.info "some information called #0", "parametrized"
          sprFizLicList.clearWrappedData()
     }
}

but I can't get code-completion in the facelets editor for my groovy-defined services (beans - call it anyhow). Any ideas ??
