It's related to our current problems with the jarjar tool, which allows us to bundle some key dependencies (ASM and Antlr) within the Groovy JAR to avoid classpath clashes issues.
The target directory should at least contain the groovy.jar, as the groovy-all.jar couldn't be created because of this problem.
Perhaps you could try to use that groovy.jar, add the asm 4 jar, as well as the antlr 2.7.x jar, and see if you can somehow run the benchmark with that?
Also, when compiling your groovy benchmark, compile the groovy script with the -indy flag, so that it's using the invoke dynamic bytecode.
And of course, this should be done on JDK 7.

Actually, we have a -DskipEmbeddable=true flag you can use to build successfully, bypassing the "jarjar"-ing of the Groovy JAR.

Given a successful build, pick up the various asm-*-4.0.jar and the antlr-2.7.7.jar on your classpath.

Hi guillaume,

ok, the workaround for the issue of failing jarjar task was already found. I'm trying to run a benchmark with my hand-made groovy-all.jar.

https://gist.github.com/2337510#gistcomment-245494

It seemed just failing to make jar file, so I tried to do "cd target/staging; jar cvf groovy-all.jar." It succeeded and I could do benchmark with the jar file.
