Groovy has many incompatible changes between versions, esp from 1.8 to 2.0 but also 1.7 to 1.8, 1.6 to 1.7, etc. Many sites provide Groovy 1.8 as the default because no-one there wants to bother with upgrading.
- agentgt 11y agoOh I guess its cause I only use it for personal scripts and only really started using it after Groovy 2 (although I used the language before I didn't switch from Python to Groovy till after Groovy 2). I am also not as Groovy as I could be (ie write like its Java at times) so maybe thats why I haven't ran into issues.
