Mule Anypoint Studio groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: StringEscapeUtils for class

This is for Mule 4, on 4.3 EE Runtime

Updated

POM File holds standard dependency, and thanks to Aled's answer also included it as a shared library:

Test call of the method required:

<scripting:execute doc:name="test StringEscapeUtil" doc:id="3f3fafea-e42c-48d2-820b-69f683307b69" engine="groovy">
    <scripting:code >import org.apache.commons.lang.*;

    String test = &quot;This is a test ,string \&quot; to escape&quot;;

    log.info(StringEscapeUtils.escapeCsv(test))
    </scripting:code>
</scripting:execute>

Actual error:

Original Issue

A scripting module running using Groovy Engine.

I've included the dependency in the mule maven pom file:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
    <artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId>
    <version>3.10</version>
</dependency>

The groovy script component does call upon the apache commons lang3:

import org.apache.commons.lang3.*;

And the call itself just outright fails:

StringEscapeUtils.escapeCsv(csvText);

The actual error:

Message               : groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: StringEscapeUtils for class: Script2

Because of Mule 4 classloading isolation you need to mark the Apache Commons Lang3 library as shared in the pom, so the scripting module can see it:

        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.mule.tools.maven</groupId>
            <artifactId>mule-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>${mule.maven.plugin.version}</version>
            <extensions>true</extensions>
            <configuration>
                <sharedLibraries>
                    <sharedLibrary> <!-- make commons-lang3 shared -->
                        <groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
                        <artifactId>commons-lang3</artifactId>
                    </sharedLibrary>
                  </sharedLibraries>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
