Gordon Flash Grails plugin protects flash scope from being cleared out unnecessarily

Gordon Flash Grails Plugin

Gordon Flash Grails plugin protects the flash scope from being cleared out by static file requests, AJAX requests, non-HTML responses, error responses, and explicitly protected requests.

The default config will be good enough to protect the flash scope in most cases. In special cases, you can explicitly protect the flash scope during a request by calling request.setAttribute(GordonFlashFilter.PROTECT_FLASH_SCOPE, true)

To install the latest version in your app: grails install-plugin gordon-flash
