groovy.lang.MetaClassRegistry.MetaClassCreationHandle
- Direct Known Subclasses:
- ExpandoMetaClassCreationHandle
- Enclosing interface:
- MetaClassRegistry
Class used as base for the creation of MetaClass implementations.
 The Class defaults to MetaClassImpl, if the class loading fails to
 find a special metaclass. The name for such a metaclass would be
 the class name it is created for with the prefix
 "groovy.runtime.metaclass." By replacing the handle in the registry
 you can have any control over the creation of what MetaClass is used
 for a class that you want to have.
 WARNING: experimental code, likely to change soon
