Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Good afternoon!

Is there documentation somewhere as to how to setup Groovy with JSF? I installed the latest version of the groovy eclipse plugin, enabled the groovy nature, and started coding.

I added the following to my web.xml

<filter>
<filter-name>GroovyFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>com.sun.faces.scripting.GroovySupportFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>GroovyFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/\*</url-pattern>
<dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
<dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>

then went to create a managed bean:

import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean
import javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped

@ManagedBean(name = "detailBean")
@SessionScoped
public class OfferDetailDelegate {

String test1 = "hello!";
String test2 = "there!";

}


When I start up tomcat I get the following error. I see groovy in my class/build path.
Jul 28, 2011 12:06:38 PM com.sun.faces.config.AnnotationScanner processClassList
SEVERE: Unable to load annotated class: com.xyz.offersworkbench.dao.delegate.OfferDetailDelegate, reason: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: groovy/lang/GroovyObject

This works if the class is a .java file.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
