Groovier way of finding index of element from Map. It can be obtained with findIndexOf Method, which accepts closure as argument. [groovy] Map map=["groovy":1,"grails":2,"index":3,"element":4] assert 3 == map.findIndexOf{it.key=="element"} assert 0 == map.findIndexOf{it.value==1} [/groovy]
In Grails app development, when using criteria queries, we often find cases for Outer joins. Lets take an example.

I believe the obvious […]

So this is what I was doing … [groovy] Event.executeUpdate(‘delete from Event’) EventInstance.executeUpdate(‘delete from EventInstance’) […]
