Can't switch to Groovy 2.4 on GGTS

Question

I followed the following guide to upgrade to grails 3.0 & Groovy 2.4 But I cannot seem to find where in eclipse (GGTS Version: 3.6.4.RELEASE) I can switch the compiler.

This is the guide I've been following: https://tedvinke.wordpress.com/2015/04/10/grails-3-released-installing-gradle-and-groovy-2-4-support-in-eclipseggts/

Did everything fine until step 5.

Here's the problem:

All I want is to upgrade my project to Grails 3 & groovy 2.4 Is there any other IDE that supports this perhaps?

Thanks!

Use Intellij IDE: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/2016.1/getting-started-with-grails-3.html — Michal_Szulc, Jul 25 '16 at 17:29
I would love to use Intellij. My company will not spend $500 per exmployee per year... — bladefist, Jul 26 '16 at 07:45

Found the issue... Just posting this in case someone else gets here.

Apparently the 2.4 compiler did not install correctly as I expected.

The solution was to reinstall Groovy 2.4 Eclipse Feature from this link in eclipse marketplace: http://dist.springsource.org/snapshot/GRECLIPSE/e4.4/

As of today the release version is available (http://dist.springsource.org/release/GRECLIPSE/e4.4/) although pivotal dropped it's support for groovy and grails a while ago. – Ibrahim.H Jan 22 '18 at 14:13
