Groovy test scripts must support external Jars

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Mail from Tanusree M:

Hi,
First I want to thank you for the wonderful tool for helping testing the rest 
web services.
I just started using the RESTClient GUI tool. I found it very interesting. What 
I'm trying is, 
I'm trying to save my response to a jason file in my local machine, then trying 
to use JUnit to match the values for each keys from the json file.
Now when I'm trying to import some external libs I'm getting error.
Here 
I'm getting the following error:
When I imported the import org.json.simple.parser.JSONParser;
import org.json.simple.JSONArray;
import org.json.simple.JSONObject; in eclipse, I added external jars but I 
don't know if I can do that for the RESTClient GUI tool.
Pls advice me.

        }
    }
}

Any help will be highly appreciated.
Best Regards.

One quick fix:

https://code.google.com/p/rest-client/source/detail?r=13b2a87f31aa561501ceff80a1
dc59f334d25dad

Should be able to load Jars from ~/.rest-client/lib directory.
