I fixed the sample. Everything should be fine now. I was able to make the application run again. I did upgrade a few plugins as well as grails. Now I am using 1.3.4.

You are right that the project does not really have my focus at the moment. Still that does not stop me from looking at it and trying to upgrade to the latest libraries. I’ll try to schedule some time to upgrade some of the grails samples to recent versions.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Hi, great little Grails app. I was mostly interested in the nav and joda plugin use and your perspective on scheduling. Alas, it does not build. And, I am using Grails 1.2.0. I suspect from the very old Grails this project has been abandoned? Errors follow in case u r interested. I have the app as an IDEA 9.0.3 project:

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed, /home/david/.grails/1.2.0/projects/MyScheduling/plugins/bubbling-2.1.1/grails-app/taglib/BubblingTagLib.groovy: 3: Invalid duplicate class definition of class BubblingTagLib : The sources /home/david/.grails/1.2.0/projects/MyScheduling/plugins/bubbling-2.1.1/grails-app/taglib/BubblingTagLib.groovy and /home/david/.grails/1.2.0/projects/MyScheduling/plugins/bubbling-2.1.2/grails-app/taglib/BubblingTagLib.groovy are containing both a class of the name BubblingTagLib.

For the time-formatting, I would just store a normal date object, then use http://ocpsoft.com/prettytime/" title="Elapsed Timestamp Formatting and Conversion for Java (Social, JSF2)"PrettyTime to format it in the display. Or, if you really want to store the elapsed time in milliseconds, PrettyTime can do that for you as well.

I think that’s what you were trying to do, at least.
