> ------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-2067
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-2067
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: syntax
> Affects Versions: 1.1-beta-2
> Environment: Ubuntu 7.04, Java 1.6.01, Groovy 1.0
> Reporter: Marcos Silva Pereira
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> With isCase method, you could do any type become a classifier for switch-case
> statements. Groovy should deals with truth the same way providing a method
> that checks truth.
> This could avoid problems like that:
> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.groovy.devel/8507/focus=8519
> And provides to users a way to do any class become a classifier for
> conditional statements. The possible names to the methods are:
> 1. isTrue
> 2. checkTruth
> 3. truth
> 4. $isTrue
> 5. truth
> 6. asBool
