- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ClosureInvokingMethod, Cloneable

      public class ClosureMetaMethod
      extends MetaMethod
      implements ClosureInvokingMethod

  A MetaMethod that accepts a closure in the constructor which is invoked when the MetaMethod is called. The delegate of the closure is set to the instance that the MetaMethod is invoked on when called.
