I'm sorry mate. That happens when you code at midnight in a polluted
groovysh. Try this out:
def check(condition) {
// Define and initialize a new map
def map = [:]
// Replace the `is` method from the map's metaclass
map.getMetaClass().is = { bool ->
println "checking if $condition yields $bool, with 'is'"
}
// Return the map
map
}
