@Documented @Retention(value=RUNTIME) @Target(value=PARAMETER) public @interface DelegatesTo
This annotation can also be used to help the type checker (TypeChecked)
which would not report errors then if the delegate is of the documented type. Of course, it is
also compatible with CompileStatic.
Example:
// Document the fact that the delegate of the closure will be an ExecSpec
ExecResult exec(@DelegatesTo(ExecSpec) Closure closure) { ... }

public abstract String target
public abstract String type
value(), genericTypeIndex() or
target(). In this case, it is possible to use a String to represent
the type, at the cost of potential uncatched errors at compile time if the
type is invalid and increased compile time.
