Re: [groovy-user] Script-Level Variable Scope - Is This Possible?

In the case of a script, you may "undef" your map to make it go into
the script's binding instead of being a local variable which is
invisible to your methods:

void needMap1() {
    println map["propOne"]
}

void needMap2() {
    println map["propTwo"]
}

// gather map values from the command-line, property files, and
console interface
map = ["propOne": "1", "propTwo": "2"]
needMap1()
needMap2()
