Getting Groovy with Java

This month, we will be "getting Groovy with Java" as we look into this exciting, relatively new scripting language for the Java programming language. Tasks such as quick database access/result set retrieval and file I/O that would normally require about 40-50 lines of code with Java can be condensed into only a few lines (if not one) with Groovy. This is indeed very powerful. Groovy code can be embedded in Java code (and vice-versa) and can even be used with the Spring Framework.
