= Apache Groovy
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
<<core.adoc#groovy-bean-definition-dsl,The Groovy Bean Definition DSL>>.
|
|
|
|
Further support for Groovy, including beans written in Groovy, refreshable script beans,
|
|
and more is available in <<dynamic-language>>.
