Grails框架的产品可以归类为基于Java的Web应用程序吗？

Question

When I search for Java frameworks, one of the popular result is Grails. However, from what I can understand it uses Groovy as the language which is similar to Java. Does this similarity grant me to call the use of Grails as Java-based web application?

Answer 1

This is not about Groovy being similar to Java, but Groovy being a language that compiles to the JVM. So from a JVM perspective, it does not matter if it is Java or Groovy, they both generate .class files. Because of that, Groovy programming can make use of all java libraries , so Grails takes advantage of this to be based on Hibernate, Spring and other Java frameworks. So for me, the answer is Yes, you can say Grails is a Java based web application.

Answer 2

如果您因为托管公司表示可以托管基于Java的Web应用程序而提出此问题，那么我认为可以说Grails应用程序是基于Java的Web应用程序。

Answer 3

From wikipedia: "Grails is an open source web application framework that uses the Groovy programming language (which is in turn based on the Java platform)". I believe this grants you to call it a java based web application, or better yet, as answered above, a JVM based web application. It is good to realize that due to this you can use existing java libraries with grails, and also whenever necessary use java source code for your development .
