How can I get javadocs / groovydocs for groovy methods in an IntelliJ IDEA Grails project?

Question

When working in a Grails project, I don't get any useful javadocs / groovydocs for the GDK methods that groovy adds to things like collections. Is there a way to do this, or is this something IntelliJ IDEA just can't do?

Answer 1

Create global library groovy with javadocs pointing to api and gapi and add groovy global library to your grails module
