Bruno Lowagie's Online Gazette

Half a year ago, I talked about some blogs written by the iText developers. One of these blogs was iText on the JVM by Michaël Demey. Michaël tested iText on Jython, JRuby, Groovy, Scala and Clojure, and he really liked Groovy. Nowadays, whenever he has to do a quick test of some iText functionality, he write a small Groovy script instead of a Java app.
Recently, Michaël has also experimented with running Groovy scripts on a Java application server. He has published his research in a series of short blogs:

• Groovy and Tomcat
• Part 1: Calling Groovy from a Java Servlet
• Part 2: Groovy extends HttpServlet
• Part 3: Groovy scripts
• Part 4: Groovy Server pages

More articles will follow in the near future. Enjoy!
