public class IOGroovyMethods extends DefaultGroovyMethodsSupport
This class defines new groovy methods for Files, URLs, URIs which appear
on normal JDK classes inside the Groovy environment.
Static methods are used with the first parameter being the destination class,
i.e. public static long size(File self)
provides a size()
method for File
.
NOTE: While this class contains many 'public' static methods, it is primarily regarded as an internal class (its internal package name suggests this also). We value backwards compatibility of these methods when used within Groovy but value less backwards compatibility at the Java method call level. I.e. future versions of Groovy may remove or move a method call in this file but would normally aim to keep the method available from within Groovy.

stream

Readers that support the mark()
operation like BufferReader. It has a fallback
behavior for Readers that don't support mark() but the behavior doesn't correctly
detect multi-character line termination (e.g. carriage return followed by linefeed).
We recommend for Readers that don't support mark() you consider using one of the
following methods instead: eachLine, readLines, or iterator.
