Package groovy.util

Various Groovy utilities for working with nodes, builders, logging, and other things.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
BufferedIterator<T>	An iterator that allows examining the next element without consuming it.
Factory
IFileNameFinder
ObjectGraphBuilder.ChildPropertySetter	Strategy for setting a child node on its parent. Useful for handling Lists/Arrays vs normal properties.
ObjectGraphBuilder.ClassNameResolver	Strategy for resolving a classname.
ObjectGraphBuilder.IdentifierResolver	Strategy for picking the correct synthetic identifier.
ObjectGraphBuilder.NewInstanceResolver	Strategy for creating new instances of a class. Useful for plug-in calls to non-default constructors.
ObjectGraphBuilder.ReferenceResolver	Strategy for picking the correct synthetic reference identifier.
ObjectGraphBuilder.RelationNameResolver	Strategy for resolving a relationship property name.
ResourceConnector	Base interface for customizing where resources can be found for the GroovyScriptEngine.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractFactory
AllTestSuite	Deprecated.
AntBuilder	Deprecated.
BuilderSupport	Base class for creating arbitrary nested trees of objects or events.
CharsetToolkit	Utility class to guess the encoding of a given text file.
ClosureComparator<T>	A Comparator which uses a closure to compare 2 values being equal
ConfigObject	A ConfigObject at a simple level is a Map that creates configuration entries (other ConfigObjects) when referencing them.
DelegatingScript	Script that performs method invocations and property access like Closure does.
Eval	Allow easy integration from Groovy into Java through convenience methods.
Expando	Represents a dynamically expandable bean.
FactoryBuilderSupport	Mix of BuilderSupport and SwingBuilder's factory support.
GroovyAssert	Deprecated. Use the GroovyAssert class instead
GroovyCollections	A Collections utility class
GroovyMBean	Deprecated. Use GroovyMBean
GroovyScriptEngine	Specific script engine able to reload modified scripts as well as dealing properly with dependent scripts.
GroovyTestCase	Deprecated.
GroovyTestSuite	Deprecated.
IndentPrinter	A helper class for printing indented text.
MapEntry	A Map.Entry implementation.
Node	Represents an arbitrary tree node which can be used for structured metadata or any arbitrary XML-like tree.
NodeBuilder	A helper class for creating nested trees of Node objects for handling arbitrary data
NodeList	A List implementation which is returned by queries on a Node which provides some XPath like helper methods for GPath.
NodePrinter	A helper class for creating nested trees of data
ObjectGraphBuilder	A builder for creating object graphs. Each node defines the class to be created and the property on its parent (if any) at the same time.
ObjectGraphBuilder.DefaultChildPropertySetter	Default impl that calls parent.propertyName = child If parent.propertyName is a Collection it will try to add child to the collection.
ObjectGraphBuilder.DefaultClassNameResolver	Default impl that capitalizes the classname.
ObjectGraphBuilder.DefaultIdentifierResolver	Default impl, always returns 'id'
ObjectGraphBuilder.DefaultNewInstanceResolver	Default impl that calls Class.newInstance()
ObjectGraphBuilder.DefaultReferenceResolver	Default impl, always returns 'refId'
ObjectGraphBuilder.DefaultRelationNameResolver	Default impl that returns parentName and childName accordingly.
ObservableList	List decorator that will trigger PropertyChangeEvents when a value changes. An optional Closure may be specified and will work as a filter, if it returns true the property will trigger an event (if the value indeed changed), otherwise it won't.
ObservableList.ElementAddedEvent
ObservableList.ElementClearedEvent
ObservableList.ElementEvent
ObservableList.ElementRemovedEvent
ObservableList.ElementUpdatedEvent
ObservableList.MultiElementAddedEvent
ObservableList.MultiElementRemovedEvent
ObservableMap	Map decorator that will trigger PropertyChangeEvents when a value changes. An optional Closure may be specified and will work as a filter, if it returns true the property will trigger an event (if the value indeed changed), otherwise it won't.
ObservableMap.MultiPropertyEvent
ObservableMap.PropertyAddedEvent
ObservableMap.PropertyClearedEvent
ObservableMap.PropertyEvent
ObservableMap.PropertyRemovedEvent
ObservableMap.PropertyUpdatedEvent
ObservableSet<E>	Set decorator that will trigger PropertyChangeEvents when a value changes. An optional Closure may be specified and will work as a filter, if it returns true the property will trigger an event (if the value indeed changed), otherwise it won't.
ObservableSet.ElementAddedEvent
ObservableSet.ElementClearedEvent
ObservableSet.ElementEvent
ObservableSet.ElementRemovedEvent
ObservableSet.MultiElementAddedEvent
ObservableSet.MultiElementRemovedEvent
OrderBy<T>	A helper class for sorting objects via a closure to return the field or operation on which to sort.
PermutationGenerator<E>	Systematically generate permutations.
Proxy	Dynamic groovy proxy for another object.
ProxyGenerator	Classes to generate 'Proxy' objects which implement interfaces, maps of closures and/or extend classes/delegates.
XmlNodePrinter	Deprecated. use XmlNodePrinter
XmlNodePrinter.NamespaceContext	Deprecated.
XmlParser	Deprecated. use XmlParser
XmlSlurper	Deprecated. use XmlSlurper
XmlUtil	Deprecated.
