Using Grails 1.4/2.0 in STS

Using Grails 1.4/2.0 in STS
By default, STS 2.7.0 enables the installation of Grails 1.3.7 and Groovy 1.7.10 from the dashboard extensions page. These versions have been thoroughly tested together. However, if you wish to try out Grails 1.4 (recently renamed 2.0) releases you have to do a couple of things: install Groovy 1.8 and tell STS about a Grails 1.4 install. There are two routes you might be taking to try this out:
  1. You are using STS and already have the Groovy/Grails support working
  2. You are using STS with no Groovy/Grails support installed
In the next sections we'll look at going from either of these setups to trying out Grails 1.4. If you haven't even got STS downloaded yet, you may want to checkout the setup instructions here.
