title: is this still allowed in grails 2.1.0?
body: <p>his is this still allowed in grails 2.1.0 because it does not seem to be saving to the database.</p>
  
  <pre><code>            def post = new Post()
              post.message = params.message
              post.author = User.get(springSecurityService.principal.id)
              post.save()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Also is there a way I can check to see its its saved?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
