Examples
Using scopes:
<g:set var="foo" value="${new Date()}" scope="page" />
<g:set var="bar" value="${new Date() - 7}" scope="session" />Using the body contents:
<g:set var="foo">Hello!</g:set>Get a bean from the applicationContext by name:
<g:set var="bookService" bean="bookService"/>Get a bean from the applicationContext by type:
<%@ page import="org.springframework.context.MessageSource" %>
<g:set var="messageSource" bean="${MessageSource}"/>Give the variable a type, so that a statically compiled page knows what it holds:
<g:set type="int" var="counter" value="${1}"/>
