What Groovy version is provided by Spring Boot?

Question

I am working on creating a Spring Boot (1.0.2.RELEASE) application that is built with Maven 3. I created my controller class as MyController.groovy and was able to build it and run it with mvn clean package && java -jar target/myApp.jar. I am using IntelliJ IDEA 13.1 as my IDE and it fails to compile the Groovy classes because I haven't explicity declared a Groovy library to use to compile?

How can I find out which version of Groovy is provided implicitly by Spring Boot, so that I can add it in my IDE?

Answer 1

Groovy 2.2.1 used in Spring Boot 1.0.2.RELEASE.
