Grails Searchable Plugin 0.4.1 is released!
"""
The Searchable Plugin aims to provide rich search features to Grails applications with minimum effort, and still give you power and flexibility when you need it.
It is built on the fantastic Compass Search Engine Framework and Lucene and has the same license as Grails (Apache 2).
"""
This is a maintenance release that fixes a few bugs - see JIRA for details:
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=11450&styleName=Html&version=14142
It bundles a patched version of Compass 1.2.2 specifically for GRAILSPLUGINS-254. I will give the code to the Compass project and hope they will include it in future versions of Compass.
The next version of the plugin will be 0.5 and means upgrading to Compass 2.0 which has some excellent new features and improvements that we can take advantage of.
Compass 2.0 is natively Java 5 only, with a retroweaver version for 1.4 jvms. I reckon I will do the same thing and provide two versions of the plugin - Java 5 by default and a separate plugin called "searchable-jdk-14".
Thanks to everybody who has said nice things, raised issues, answered mailing lists posts and blogged about the plugin :-)
Cheers,
Maurice
