Thanks for your work on progressing the 1.3 release Benedikt. We have built Groovy using the RC-1 candidate jar and the build and all tests succeed. This is already a huge step forward for us. Thanks! (And thanks Pascal for doing the checking). Having said that, I should also give you a little bit more context. We forked our own version of PosixParser in late 2012. Our version has some of the bug fixes from 1.3 and some of our own bug fixes. So the current build is still using that class and that in turn refers to a bunch of the classes which were deprecated in CLI 1.3. We have a bunch of open Groovy JIRA issues related to CLI 1.2 bugs. We'll have to check them individually to see whether we can close off any with CLI 1.3 in place. I suspect some might remain because of our use of our forked class at present. We'll certainly have a bunch more feedback when we try to deprecate our forked class and migrate ourselves across to the DefaultParser which we'll do over the coming months once CLI 1.3 is out. At least with a 1.3 out we'll be in a much better position to iteratively move across and also give you timely and relevant feedback for any issues that we find. Cheers, Paul.
