Re: Using Groovy 4.0.1 and want to use Groovys JsonSlurper or whatever it might be called in version 4.

Hi Tommy, if you add the groovy-json module to your dependencies, you
should be good to go.

The groovy-all dependency is a pom dependency. How to use a pom
dependency differs between build tools. Generally, just telling your
build tool it's a pom might be enough for things to start working
again for you.

There was an issue with differences between how Maven and Gradle
treated our early pom dependencies for Groovy 4 which has been fixed
in later versions. So, upgrading to 4.0.3 might also prove useful.

Cheers, Paul.

The problem is that there seem to be not groovy-all for version 4.0.1. Maven completely fails when I add "-all" to "groovy" in my poms. It will not download the groovy-all file. I deleted ~/.m2/repository and built again and it downloaded all but groovy-all.
