IntelliJ Groovy version

Question

I'm in the process of upgrading a project to Groovy v1.6. When I installed IntelliJ, my GROOVY_HOME environment variable was pointing to Groovy v1.5.7, but now that I've changed GROOVY_HOME to point to v1.6, it's not clear whether IntelliJ is also using the more recent version.

How can I check which version of Groovy IntelliJ is using?

Answer 1

I believe you want to use the File -> Project Structure menu item. Then look at your Libraries and Facets (expand for Groovy) options.

Answer 2

Use "Add Framework Support":

Right click on your module and choose "Add Framework Support...". There you can add/change the groovy version

Answer 3

Found this old thread looking for a similar thing, but ended up figuring it out myself.

In my case, the project was boostrapped with Gradle . I didn't have a standalone Groovy version installed on my machine.

Open Tools -> Groovy Console... , and type pretty much any command and run it. It showed me the path to Gradle cache, which included Groovy version, near the top of the new window:

.../.gradle/caches/modules-2/files-2.1/org.codehaus.groovy/groovy-all/2.4.12/...

Also check build.gradle as it may have some hints as to which version the project uses.
