Grails

reloading now works in grails console, but not shell

reloading support for shell postponed until post 1.0, console reloads though

Moving non-critical issues that aren't going to make it into 1.1 to 1.2

There is no scope / time to resolve these remaining lower priority issues for 1.2 so moving to 1.3

for 1.2 final only issues considered blocking will now be fixed

Workaround:
-------
import org.hibernate.Session
import org.hibernate.SessionFactory
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.SessionFactoryUtils
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.SessionHolder
import org.springframework.transaction.support.TransactionSynchronizationManager
sessionFactory = ctx.getBean("sessionFactory")
session = SessionFactoryUtils.getSession(sessionFactory, true)
TransactionSynchronizationManager.bindResource(sessionFactory, new SessionHolder(session))

as noted in: http://old.nabble.com/domain-relationships-in-shell---console-td15434264.html

could get that into point 1.2.1 release
