[groovy-user] No signature of method: static groovy.util.ConfigSlurper.parse() is applicable for argument types: (java.net.URL)

[Martin Jones]

Hi,

I am confused when trying to use ConfigSlurper. The code:

ConfigObject config
File configFile = new File('.taxonerator')
if (configFile.exists()){
config = ConfigSlurper.parse(configFile.toURL())
}
else{
config = new ConfigObject()
}

Throws an exception:

Exception in thread "main" groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No
signature of method: static groovy.util.ConfigSlurper.parse() is
applicable for argument types: (java.net.URL) values:
[file:/home/martin/NetBeansProjects/TaxAnnotator/.taxonerator]
Possible solutions: parse(java.net.URL), parse(groovy.lang.Script),
parse(java.lang.Class), parse(java.lang.String),
parse(java.util.Properties), parse(groovy.lang.Script, java.net.URL)

at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:125)
etc. etc. etc.

But the docs and the stacktrace clearly show that there is a
ConfigSlurper.parse(java.net.URL) method.

Any advice?

Martin

It's not a statc method though:

   config = new ConfigSlurper().parse( configFile.toURL() )

Tim

[Ian Cairns]

Try

config = new ConfigSlurper().parse(configFile.toURL())

D'oh! My mistake, thanks for pointing it out.
