A Groovy switch case example

A Groovy switch case example

Below is an example of Groovys switch/case feature taken from The Definitive Guide to Grails by Graeme Rocher. I am not a regular user of Javas switch/case feature, but if it had been this way perhaps I might have.

switch (x) {
 case James:
 println "yes it is me"
 break
 case 18..65:
 println "ok you are old"
 break
 case ~/Gw?+e/:
 println "your name starts with G and ends in e!"
 break
 case Date:
 println got a Date instance
 break
 case [John, Ringo, Paul, George]:
 println "Got one of the Beatles"
 break
 default:
 println "Dont know"
}
