All Implemented Interfaces and Traits:

ClosureInvokingMethod
```
public class ClosureMetaMethod
extends MetaMethod
implements ClosureInvokingMethod
```

- Constructor Detail
  - public ClosureMetaMethod(String name, Closure c, CachedMethod doCall)
    
    Constructs a new ClosureMetaMethod with the specified name and closure. The declaring class is obtained from the closure's owner.
    Parameters:
    name - the name of the method
    c - the closure to invoke when this method is called
    doCall - the cached method representing the closure's doCall method
  - public ClosureMetaMethod(String name, Class declaringClass, Closure c, CachedMethod doCall)
    
    Constructs a new ClosureMetaMethod with the specified name, declaring class, and closure.
    Parameters:
    name - the name of the method
    declaringClass - the class that declares this meta method
    c - the closure to invoke when this method is called
    doCall - the cached method representing the closure's doCall method
- Method Detail
  - public static ClosureMetaMethod copy(ClosureMetaMethod closureMethod)
    
    Creates a copy of the given ClosureMetaMethod. If the method is a MethodClosureMetaMethod, returns a new MethodClosureMetaMethod; otherwise returns a new ClosureMetaMethod.
    Parameters:
    closureMethod - the closure meta method to copy
    Returns:
    a copy of the closure meta method
  - public static List<MetaMethod> createMethodList(String name, Class declaringClass, Closure closure)
    
    Creates a list of MetaMethod instances from the given closure. Handles MethodClosure, GeneratedClosure, and anonymous closures appropriately.
    Parameters:
    name - the name of the method
    declaringClass - the class that declares this meta method
    closure - the closure to create meta methods from
    Returns:
    a list of MetaMethod instances
  - public Closure getClosure()
    
    Retrieves the closure that is invoked by this MetaMethod
    Returns:
    The closure
  - public CachedClass getDeclaringClass()
    
    Returns the cached class that declares this meta method.
    Returns:
    the declaring class
  - public CachedMethod getDoCall()
    
    Returns the cached method that represents the closure's doCall method.
    Returns:
    the cached doCall method
  - public int getModifiers()
    
    Returns the modifiers for this method.
    Returns:
    Modifier.PUBLIC
  - public String getName()
    
    Returns the name of this closure meta method.
    Returns:
    the name of the method
  - public Class getReturnType()
    
    Returns the return type of this method.
    Returns:
    Object.class, as closures return Object
  - public Object invoke(Object object, Object[] arguments)
    
    Invokes the closure with the given arguments. The closure's delegate is set to the object on which this method is being invoked.
    Parameters:
    object - the object on which the method is invoked (becomes the closure's delegate)
    arguments - the arguments to pass to the closure
    Returns:
    the result of the closure invocation
