This is a tough one: Developing the IDE Support to debug the execution of Groovy Sourcode.
I can imagine that this is very difficult and time consuming. However I think it is a key feature to develop complex applications. Wouldn't it make sense to work on this with higher priority?
I agree. Increasing priority. On the other hand there is always a high level plan at the beginning of the release where IZ priority is not the only criteria. In this terms this definitely has a high priority. BTW You can debug grails app even these days (although not directly supported): 1) run grails-debug run-app from command line 2) choose Debug/Attach Debugger 3) configure you breakpoints 4) inspect local variables (groovy expressions not yet supported)
Attaching the patch - to be applied post 6.8 (GroovyEvaluator is just placeholder now). Feel free to test.

Fixed in web-main f889ef0057dd.
The target milestone is 6.9? Is this going to be in 6.8 now?
No. It is going to be in dev build (trunk) and 6.9. There is a chance for this being in 6.8.1. We are in feature freeze period for some time (see comment #3).
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *200912010200* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/f889ef0057dd User: phejl@netbeans.org Log: #123169 groovy debugging support
