    Description

      This is with very great pleasure and honor that I'm announcing the
      final release of Groovy 1.6, on behalf of the Groovy development team
      and SpringSource.

      Obviously, 1.6 is a very important milestone for the project, with
      several great new features and improvements:

      • great runtime performance improvements
      • multiple assignments
      • optional return in if/else and try/catch blocks
      • AST transformations and all the provided transformation annotations
        like @Singleton, @Lazy, @Immutable, @Delegate and friends
      • the Grape module and dependency system and its @Grab transformation
      • various Swing builder improvements, thanks to the Swing / Griffon
        (http://griffon.codehaus.org) team
      • as well as several Swing console improvements
      • the integration of JMX builder
      • JSR-223 scripting engine built-in
      • various metaprogramming improvements, like the EMC DSL, per-instance
        metaclasses even for POJOs, and runtime mixins
