- Method Detail
  - public Object evaluate(String expression)
    
    A helper method to allow the dynamic evaluation of groovy expressions using this scripts binding as the variable scope
    Parameters:
    expression - is the Groovy script expression to evaluate
  - public Object evaluate(File file)
    
    A helper method to allow the dynamic evaluation of groovy expressions using this scripts binding as the variable scope
    Parameters:
    file - is the Groovy script to evaluate
  - public Binding getBinding()
  - public Object getProperty(String property)
  - public Object invokeMethod(String name, Object args)
    
    Invoke a method (or closure in the binding) defined.
    Returns:
    value
    Parameters:
    name - method to call
    args - arguments to pass to the method
  - public void print(Object value)
    
    Prints the value to the current 'out' variable which should be a PrintWriter or at least have a print() method defined on it. If there is no 'out' property then print to standard out.
  - public void printf(String format, Object value)
    
    Prints a formatted string using the specified format string and argument.
    Parameters:
    format - the format to follow
    value - the value to be formatted
  - public void printf(String format, Object[] values)
    
    Prints a formatted string using the specified format string and arguments.
    Parameters:
    format - the format to follow
    values - an array of values to be formatted
  - public void println()
    
    Prints a newline to the current 'out' variable which should be a PrintWriter or at least have a println() method defined on it. If there is no 'out' property then print to standard out.
  - public void println(Object value)
    
    Prints the value and a newline to the current 'out' variable which should be a PrintWriter or at least have a println() method defined on it. If there is no 'out' property then print to standard out.
  - public Object run()
    
    The main instance method of a script which has variables in scope as defined by the current Binding instance.
  - public void run(File file, String[] arguments)
    
    A helper method to allow scripts to be run taking command line arguments
  - public void setBinding(Binding binding)
  - public void setProperty(String property, Object newValue)
