I’ve accidentally ran a script with an infinite loop in GroovyConsole. :-\

For the sake of Murphy’s Law, I haven’t save my work during 3 or 4 hours. So, before killing the GroovyConsole Process, I’ve dumped the heap, with the hope to find a String version of the Script that was running at this moment

Do you have a hint in which Class it can hide, or if it is possible ?

    select x.history.elementData[x.history.elementData.length-2].allText.toString() from groovy.ui.Console x

    Despaired groovy developers who’ve lost their code once might be releaved now 🙂 For sure I am

    The string version of the script may exists in another object. I’d love to hear other solutions
