It is not really my area of expertise. Other than reading the dependency resolution documentation, I have read that some of the earlier versions of Grails and older versions of IntelliJ might have some problems as described in the provided link. Maybe that can point you in the right direction: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1869574/how-to-make-use-of-grails-dependencies-in-your-ide

What kind of compilation prmelbos did you run into before? I am currently using IDEA 8.1.3 #9886 with its JetGroovy plugin, Grails 1.1.1. I created a Grails module which depends on existing Java modules in the same project. However, when I try to run the Grails application (run-app), the depending Java modules jars are not on the classpath, thus my Java code can’t compile in groovyc steps.Do you have any ideas? Thanks

I really haven’t got any good ideas how to solve that issue … yet. Off the top of my head, JARing the modules and then placing them in a repository that your grails project can access and then listing it as a dependency in BuildConfig.groovy seems like the best available option.
I would love for somebody to come with a really good example of how to get a Grails project to easily live in a continuous integration environment, integrating hudson/jenkins, git, artifactory with automated release-builds, without having to convert it all to a maven-based project. But I think that it will take a home-built gradle script to make that happen. If I do make such a gradle script and it isn’t totally ugly then I’ll do a post on that as well.

Li: I am having the same preblom. Our grails app depends on two external Java Modules as well. I have set up the grail module to depend on those two external modules, but the minute I try to build or run the app, I get a compiler error stating it cannot find the classes in those external modules.The only way I have round to get around it is to JAR those modules up and stick them in the LIB directory. Kind of a pain if you ask me.

Nice article. I took my time and read it twice, but still need to find a ‘working example’ of my own to try it out on. You are not alone!

That rocks! Can’t wait to play some more with that. I’m looking forward to seeing it live interacting with mongo and oracle.

Perhaps it should be an addon to the original plugin? As in a separate git repos. Too bad Oracle still believe in proprietary jars and have an open repos. That would really ease things up.
