weird grails error message

Using grails 1.1.1 I got this message when I did a modification on a service and then tried to refresh the page.

I have a controller name ContributionPlanController. It has a service ContributionPlanservice.

inside the ContributionPlanService, it has ProductService and some other Services including JointPIAService.

JointPIAService it self, inherited from ProductService

I did a modification on ProductService, like println on something and this errors always appeared. If I restarted the application, it will works fine.

Any idea how to solve this ?

When you declared ContributionPlanService within ContributionPlanController, did you do so with explicit typing ("ContributionPlanService contributionPlanService") or with dynamic typing ("def contributionPlanService")?

In 1.0.4, the combination of auto-wiring and hot swapping only worked with dynamic typing (def ...). That is, that an explicitly declared service would get auto-wired okay the first time you start up the app, but that the hot swapping is foiled thereafter. Changing the declaring to def would make the hot swapping work, but then you lose the benefit of your IDE helping you out.

Now that you mention it, I was hoping this would be fixed in 1.1.x, but I haven't tried it yet. (I'm not in a position to test it right this moment, but I didn't want to wait to send you this answer. Try it and let me know.)
