Comment 2 Torbjorn Norbye 2008-05-23 21:23:09 UTC

I suspect the problem here is that your Groovy plugin is out of sync with the IDE. For 6.5, many of the underlying APIs
the Groovy plugin is depending on is changing drastically (to make them more stable from 6.5 and on). One such change
happened yesterday and from what I can tell that is what is biting you here. I just checked with Matthias (who wrote the
Groovy hints) and he says the hints are working for him - but he's probably running groovy plugins built against the
trunk.  If you get a complete kit (including Groovy) from the continuous build I think/hope that should work (instead of
having Groovy downloaded via the Plugins manager, since the plugin daily center isn't necessarily built against the same
exact version of the trunk, and that matters right now as we're changing the infrastructure.)

(I'm not sure if Groovy is included in either of those full configurations -- Martin? Matthias?)

After syncing, rebuilding - no problem anymore

'ruby/gsf -> editor/csl' mass-move to be able to deleted gsf/ruby. Having to
change the version and platform of all closed moved issues to the same due to
Issuezilla deficiencies - choosing version == 6.5 and TM = 7.0.
