Well I've also tried with propertyMissing and methodMissing and they
don't work either:
class MyClass{}
a = new MyClass()
@Category(MyClass)
class MyCategory {
def missingMethod(String name, def args) { "missingMethod" }
def propertyMissing(String name) { "propertyMissing" }
def test() { "works" }
}
use(MyCategory) {
assert "works" == a.test()
// assert "propertyMissing" == a.property1 // MissingPropertyException
assert "missingMethod" == a.method1() // MissingMethodException
}
The missingMethod is not callled on a.method1() . Am I using the right syntax?
