Thank you for the wonderful news! Especially that bit about 8.0, that is exciting.

Very cool. Can't wait to try out the improved refactoring support and all the Grails integration features.
Keep up the great work, this plugin is so far and away better than any other IDE support.

Probably one of the best IDE so far.
But the lack of package support for domain classes is a no go for me :-(

Olikaf,
JetGroovy supports packages for domain classes. All you need is to make sure that the grails-app/domain folder is configured as a source root in the module settings.
Hope this helps :)

in response to: rayshade
Damm,how did I miss that ? :-)
After creating packages under the domain I can now create domain classs with a package.
You have won a new user

O.
PS : ok, the domain graph dependencies does not work yet (it seems ! I'm careful now !) with packages but this is really a minor issue for me;-)
