Method Summary
static ApplicationContext bootstrapGrailsFromApplication(GrailsApplication application)

Bootstraps Grails with the given GrailsApplication instance.

static ApplicationContext bootstrapGrailsFromClassPath()

Bootstraps a Grails application from the current classpath.

static ApplicationContext bootstrapGrailsFromParentContext(ApplicationContext parent)

Bootstraps Grails from the given parent ApplicationContext which should contain a bean definition called "grailsApplication" of type GrailsApplication.

static java.lang.Throwable deepSanitize(java.lang.Throwable t)

Sanitize the exception and ALL nested causes

This will MODIFY the stacktrace of the exception instance and all its causes irreversibly

static void deprecated(java.lang.Class clazz, java.lang.String methodOrPropName)

Logs warning message about deprecation of specified property or method of some class.

static void deprecated(java.lang.Class clazz, java.lang.String methodOrPropName, java.lang.String version)

Logs warning message about deprecation of specified property or method of some class.

static void deprecated(java.lang.String message)

Logs warning message about some deprecation and code style related hints.

static java.lang.Throwable extractRootCause(java.lang.Throwable t)

Extracts the root cause of the exception, no matter how nested it is

static java.lang.String getEnvironment()

Retrieves the current execution environment.

static java.lang.String getGrailsVersion()

static boolean isApplicationClass(java.lang.String className)

static boolean isDevelopmentEnv()

Retrieves whether the current execution environment is the development one.

static void printSanitizedStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable t, java.io.PrintWriter p)

static void printSanitizedStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable t)

static java.lang.Throwable sanitize(java.lang.Throwable t)

Remove all apparently Grails-internal trace entries from the exception instance

This modifies the original instance and returns it, it does not clone

static java.lang.Throwable sanitizeRootCause(java.lang.Throwable t)

Get the root cause of an exception and sanitize it for display to the user

This will MODIFY the stacktrace of the root cause exception object and return it

static void warn(java.lang.String message)

Logs warning message to grails.util.GrailsUtil logger which is turned on in development mode.

static void writeSlurperResult(groovy.util.slurpersupport.GPathResult result, java.io.Writer output)

Writes out a GPathResult (i.e. the result of parsing XML using XmlSlurper) to the given writer.

Method Detail

bootstrapGrailsFromApplication

public static ApplicationContext bootstrapGrailsFromApplication(GrailsApplication application)
Bootstraps Grails with the given GrailsApplication instance.
Parameters:
application - The GrailsApplication instance
Returns:
A Grails ApplicationContext


bootstrapGrailsFromClassPath

public static ApplicationContext bootstrapGrailsFromClassPath()

Bootstraps a Grails application from the current classpath. The method will look for an applicationContext.xml file in the classpath that must contain a bean of type GrailsApplication and id grailsApplication.

The method will then bootstrap Grails with the GrailsApplication and load all Grails plug-ins found in the path

Returns:
The Grails ApplicationContext instance


bootstrapGrailsFromParentContext

public static ApplicationContext bootstrapGrailsFromParentContext(ApplicationContext parent)
Bootstraps Grails from the given parent ApplicationContext which should contain a bean definition called "grailsApplication" of type GrailsApplication.


deepSanitize

public static java.lang.Throwable deepSanitize(java.lang.Throwable t)

Sanitize the exception and ALL nested causes

This will MODIFY the stacktrace of the exception instance and all its causes irreversibly

Parameters:
t
Returns:
The root cause exception instances, with stack trace modified to filter out grails runtime classes


deprecated

public static void deprecated(java.lang.Class clazz, java.lang.String methodOrPropName)
Logs warning message about deprecation of specified property or method of some class.
Parameters:
clazz - A class
methodOrPropName - Name of deprecated property or method


deprecated

public static void deprecated(java.lang.Class clazz, java.lang.String methodOrPropName, java.lang.String version)
Logs warning message about deprecation of specified property or method of some class.
Parameters:
clazz - A class
methodOrPropName - Name of deprecated property or method
version - Version of Grails release in which property or method were deprecated


deprecated

public static void deprecated(java.lang.String message)
Logs warning message about some deprecation and code style related hints.
Parameters:
message - Message to display


extractRootCause

public static java.lang.Throwable extractRootCause(java.lang.Throwable t)

Extracts the root cause of the exception, no matter how nested it is

Parameters:
t
Returns:
The deepest cause of the exception that can be found


getEnvironment

@Deprecated
public static java.lang.String getEnvironment()
Retrieves the current execution environment.
deprecated:
Use Environment.getCurrent() method instead
Returns:
The environment Grails is executing under

isApplicationClass

public static boolean isApplicationClass(java.lang.String className)


isDevelopmentEnv

public static boolean isDevelopmentEnv()
Retrieves whether the current execution environment is the development one.
Returns:
True if it is the development environment


printSanitizedStackTrace

public static void printSanitizedStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable t, java.io.PrintWriter p)


printSanitizedStackTrace

public static void printSanitizedStackTrace(java.lang.Throwable t)


sanitize

public static java.lang.Throwable sanitize(java.lang.Throwable t)
