Unable to get this working. I am using Groovy 2.0.5 and JDK 1.7.10

HttpServerTest.groovy

import org.vertx.java.core.Vertx
import org.vertx.java.core.http.HttpServer

class HttpServerTest {

    Vertx vertx
    HttpServer httpServer

    HttpServerTest() {
        vertx = Vertx.newVertx()
        httpServer = vertx.createHttpServer()
    }

    def startServer(){
        httpServer.requestHandler { def request -> println "this is a test"}.listen(8080, "localhost")
    }

    public static void main(String[] args){
        new HttpServerTest().startServer()
    }

}
