missing the code parts ? sorry ....
ok I try again
----------------------------------------------------
// this part read from a resource so simplifying
String className = 'java.awt.Canvas'
String originalMethodName = 'repaint'
String newMethName = 'repeindre'
Class clazz = Class.forName(className)
// now I want Canvas#repaint aliased as 'repeindre'
clazz.metaClass."$newMethName" = { it== null? delegate."$originalMethName"()
:delegate."$originalMethName"(*it)}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
now the aliasing expression does not work properly
is there something simple or do I have to explore all the different cases
for the method argument?
for example this does not work:
-----------------------------------------------------
clazz.metaClass."$newMethName" = clazz.metaClass.&"$originalMethName"
------------------------------------------------------
thanks
