NoChildren (groovy 3.0.4 API)

groovy.util.slurpersupport.NoChildren

```
@Deprecated
public class NoChildren
extends GPathResult
```
Lazy evaluated representation of a GPath expression returning no children. As this class represents a GPath expression with no results, all methods are either NOPs or return an empty result.
