I was following a tutorial for using SoapUI with Groovy.

I created a simple script to perform a Hello Word and it worked.

When I created a new project, package and file it does not look correct.   I don't know what I did differently.  

It shows line numbers when editing the file and they were not there when things were working as expected.   There is a red X on all levels of the project.  

I added an attachment.  

No answers so far.  Notice that I am a pie user.

Thanks,

Kevin

The red X simply means there is a compiler error. In this case, the variable a is undefined. Try changing it to def a = 3 - this will declare a new variable a and assign the value to it.

The line numbers are a setting in Eclipse that you can turn on or off. I suggest you keep them on, as they are often a great help in debugging.

Rob,

I noticed that I forgot to thank you for the reply two years ago.   Yes.  I forgot to use def.

Thanks,

Kevin
