| Interface | Description |
|---|---|

| Buildable | |
| ClosureInvokingMethod | An interface for MetaMethods that invoke closures to implements. |
| GeneratedGroovyProxy | An interface implemented by some Groovy proxies which gives access to the proxied object. |
| GroovyCallable | A special "marker" style interface allowing Groovy classes to implement both Runnable and Callable yet give preference to Runnable (for backwards compatibility) for APIs having both Runnable and Callable methods. |
| GroovyInterceptable | Marker interface used to notify that all methods should be intercepted through the invokeMethod mechanism
of GroovyObject. |
| GroovyObject | The interface implemented by all Groovy objects. |
| GroovyResourceLoader | Allows frameworks that integrate with Groovy to determine how Groovy files are resolved. |
| Interceptor | Implementers of this interface can be registered in the ProxyMetaClass for notifications about method calls for objects managed by the ProxyMetaClass. |

| Range | A Range represents the list of discrete items between some starting (or from)
value and working up towards some ending (or to) value.

| GroovySystem | |
| IntRange | Represents a list of Integer objects starting at and potentially including a specified
from value up (or down) to and potentially including a given to value. |
| ListWithDefault | A wrapper for List which automatically grows the list when either get(int) or
getAt(int) is called with an index greater than or equal to size(). |
| MOPIter.MetaConstructor | This is a helper class which is used only by indy. |
| MapWithDefault | A wrapper for Map which allows a default value to be specified using a closure. |
| MetaArrayLengthProperty | Represents the length property of an array |
| MetaBeanProperty | Represents a property on a bean which may have a getter and/or a setter |
| MetaClassImpl | Allows methods to be dynamically added to existing classes at runtime |
| MetaClassRegistry.MetaClassCreationHandle | Class used as base for the creation of MetaClass implementations. |
| MetaClassRegistryChangeEvent | An event used to propagate metaclass updates |
| MetaExpandoProperty | Represents a property in an Expando object |
| MetaMethod | Represents a Method on a Java object a little like Method except without using reflection to invoke the method |
| MetaProperty | Represents a property on a bean which may have a getter and/or a setter |
| NamedValue | Represents a value with name |
| NonEmptySequence | Represents a sequence of one or more objects of a given type. |
| NumberRange | Represents an immutable list of Numbers from a value to a value with a particular step size. |
| ObjectRange | Represents an inclusive list of objects from a value to a value using comparators. |

| Tuple10 | Represents a list of 10 typed Objects. |
| Tuple11 | Represents a list of 10 typed Objects. |
| Tuple12 | Represents a list of 12 typed Objects. |
| Tuple13 | Represents a list of 13 typed Objects. |
| Tuple14 | Represents a list of 14 typed Objects. |
| Tuple15 | Represents a list of 15 typed Objects. |
| Tuple16 | Represents a list of 16 typed Objects. |
| Tuple2 | Represents a list of 2 typed Objects. |

| Annotation Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Category | Transforms an instance-style Groovy class or interface to become a static-style conventional Groovy category. |
| Delegate | Annotation to automatically delegate part of the functionality of an owner class to the annotated delegation target. |
| DelegatesTo | This annotation can be used by API or DSL writers to specify what the delegate type of a closure will be. |
| DelegatesTo.Target | Specifies the delegate for a @DelegatesTo annotated parameter of the same method. |
| Grab | Used to grab the referenced artifact and its dependencies and make it available on the Classpath. |
| GrabConfig | Used to modify the grape configuration for grab requests. |
| GrabExclude | Used to exclude an indirectly referenced artifact (a transitive dependency) from the classpath. |
| GrabResolver | Used to add a repository for resolving Grape dependencies. |
| Grapes | Sometimes we will need more than one grab per class, but we can only add one annotation type per annotatable node. |
| Groovydoc | An annotation to hold the groovydoc for the annotated element at runtime, we call it "Runtime Groovydoc". |
| Lazy | Field annotation to simplify lazy initialization. |
| Mixin | Provides a mechanism for mixing in methods into a class. |
| Newify | Annotation that supports writing constructor call expressions without the 'new' keyword. |
| Singleton | Class annotation to make a singleton class. |
