Grails 1.4: The new Resources stuff « Glen Smith

I’ve recently migrated one of my applications over to Grails 1.4M1 (mainly because I was busting to try out the new testing stuff that Peter was writing about). In the process, I had a chance to kick the tyres on the new resources infrastructure that Marc has baked into 1.4.
So what’s the verdict? The new Resources framework is jam-packed-full-of-awesome! This stuff has significantly reduced the amount of js/css dependency nightmares that I have been dealing in my view layer. Not only is there far less code to write, I can now migrate between versions of libraries without the drama of updating any of my ref links.
