## Class ClosureStaticMetaMethod

- java.lang.Object
- - org.codehaus.groovy.reflection.ParameterTypes
  - - groovy.lang.MetaMethod
    - - org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.metaclass.ClosureStaticMetaMethod

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ClosureInvokingMethod, java.lang.Cloneable

      public class ClosureStaticMetaMethod
      extends MetaMethod
      implements ClosureInvokingMethod

  This class represents a MetaMethod that is a closure that pretends to be a static method. It is used by ExpandoMetaClass to allow addition of static methods defined as closures
