John Wagenleitner commented on GROOVY-8242:
-------------------------------------------

I believe the javadoc code is valid.  You can omit providing a value if using 
the Ruby style, {{Integer.new(7)}}, unless {{auto=false}} is set.  The value is 
required when using the Python style, {{Integer(7)}} as noted in this line from 
the javadoc:

{quote}The "Python-style" conversions require you to specify each class on 
which you want them to apply.{quote}

> Javadoc for Newify is missing some attribute values

>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Eric Milles
>            Priority: Minor
>
> I was looking at thw Newify AST transform.  Some of the Javadoc appears 
> incorrect since the annotation requires a value.
> {code}
>  * or this ("Ruby-style"):
>  * <pre>
>  * {@code @Newify} class MyTreeProcessor {  --  Is this supposed to be 
> @Newify([Tree,Leaf])?
>  *     def myTree = Tree.new(Tree.new(Leaf.new("A"), Leaf.new("B")), 
> Leaf.new("C"))
>  *     def process() { ... }
>  * }
>  * </pre>
> {code}
> {code}
>  * An example showing how to use the annotation at different levels:
>  * <pre>
>  * {@code @Newify(auto=false, value=Foo)}
>  * class Main {
>  *     {@code @Newify} // turn auto on for field  --  Is this supposed to be 
> @Newify(BigInteger)?
>  *     def field1 = java.math.BigInteger.new(42)
>  *     def field2, field3, field4
>  *
>  *     {@code @Newify(Bar)}
>  *     def process() {
>  *         field2 = Bar("my bar")
>  *     }
>  *
>  *     {@code @Newify(Baz)}
>  *     Main() {
>  *         field3 = Foo("my foo")
>  *         field4 = Baz("my baz")
>  *     }
>  * }
>  * </pre>
> {code}
