Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-9510:
-------------------------------------
The method target was added to help this and GROOVY-10192. No support was
added to the type checker. Not sure if IntelliJ added any support or not. I
removed the target in this commit, but I could put it back if it is still
useful.

> If you have an annotation with a closure field like for example this in Spock:
> {code:java}
> @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> @Target({ElementType.TYPE, ElementType.METHOD})
> @ExtensionAnnotation(RequiresExtension.class)
> public @interface Requires {
> Class<? extends Closure> value();
> }{code}
> you can use it like
> {code:java}
> @Requires({ os.windows }){code}
> But I see no way to add IDE-hints for that closure like
> {{@DelegatesTo(PreconditionContext.class)}} as it is restriced to parameters.
> It would be nice if you could also annotate annotation member methods (and if
> IDEs would then support that too).
