- - ### Methods Detail

    - #### public Object asType(Class clazz)

      Coerces the closure to an implementation of the given class. The class is assumed to be an interface or class with a single method definition. The closure is used as the implementation of that single method.

      Parameters:
        `clazz` - the target type
      Returns:
        a Proxy of the given type which wraps this closure.
      Since:
        1.0

    - #### public void print(Object value)

      Print a value to the standard output stream. This method delegates to the owner to execute the method.

      Parameters:
        `value` - the value to print
      Since:
        1.0

    - #### public void println()

      Print a linebreak to the standard output stream. This method delegates to the owner to execute the method.

      Since:
        1.0

    - #### public void println(Object value)

      Print a value (followed by a newline) to the standard output stream. This method delegates to the owner to execute the method.

      Parameters:
        `value` - the value to print
      Since:
        1.0
