    <p>Try this:</p> <pre><code>def cl = Class.forName("org.package.Foo") cl.get(1) </code></pre> <p>A little bit longer but should work.</p> <p>If you want to create "switch"-like code for static methods, I suggest to instantiate the classes (even if they have only static methods) and save the instances in a map. You can then use</p> <pre><code>map[name].get(1) </code></pre> <p>to select one of them.</p> <p><strong>[EDIT]</strong> <code>"$name"</code> is a <code>GString</code> and as such a valid statement. <code>"$name".foo()</code> means "call the method <code>foo()</code> of the class <code>GString</code>.</p> <p><strong>[EDIT2]</strong> When using a web container (like Grails), you have to specify the classloader. There are two options:</p> <pre><code>Class.forName("com.acme.MyClass", true, Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader) </code></pre> <p>or </p> <pre><code>Class.forName("com.acme.MyClass", true, getClass().classLoader) </code></pre> <p>The first option will work only in a web context, the second approach also works for unit tests. It depends on the fact that you can usually use the same classloader as the class which invokes <code>forName()</code>.</p> <p>If you have problems, then use the first option and set the <code>contextClassLoader</code> in your unit test:</p> <pre><code>def orig = Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader try { Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader = getClass().classLoader ... test ... } finally { Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader = orig } </code></pre>

    1. COI was hoping to find out if there was a "Groovy" way of doing Class.forName, similar to how they made reflection on methods so easy. I do appreciate your answer and suspect that this might be the only way.

    2. CO@John: No, that's not possible. I asked on the Groovy ML. You have to call Class.forName() because "$name" is a GString and Groovy doesn't try to be smart about the contents of the variable "name".

    3. CO@Aaron - thanks, I read the thread on the Groovy ML and that just the info I was looking for.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
