Description
Refer to the section on GORM in the Grails user guide which details how to create Grails domain classes.Configured Spring Beans given a domain class of Book:
BookValidator - A api:org.codehaus.groovy.grails.validation.GrailsDomainClassValidator that validates a domain class' defined constraints.
BookPersistentClass - The java.lang.Class for the domain class Book
BookDomainClass - The api:org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.GrailsDomainClass instance which understands the conventions defined within a domain class and is used by GORM to perform ORM mapping.
Book - A prototyped bean that will create a new instance of Book every time requested. This bean is used to perform auto-wiring of domain classes when constructed with the new operator.
