org.codehaus.groovy.transform.trait.TraitASTTransformation

All Implemented Interfaces and Traits:

CompilationUnitAware
```
public class TraitASTTransformation
extends AbstractASTTransformation
implements CompilationUnitAware
```
Handles generation of code for the traits (trait keyword is equivalent to using the
Trait:
annotation). A class annotated with
Trait:
will generate, instead:
- an interface with the same name
- a utility inner class that will be used by the compiler to implement the trait
- potentially a utility inner class to assist with implementing trait fields

Field Summary

Modifiers	Name	Description
`static String`	`DO_DYNAMIC`	Metadata key that marks trait-generated calls requiring dynamic dispatch.
`static String`	`POST_TYPECHECKING_REPLACEMENT`	Metadata key that stores an expression replacement to apply after type checking.

Methods Summary

Methods
Type Params	Return Type	Name and description
	`public void`	`setCompilationUnit(CompilationUnit unit)` Stores the compilation unit so generated helper classes can register follow-up transformations.
	`public void`	`visit(ASTNode[] nodes, SourceUnit source)` Rewrites a trait declaration into the interface and helper classes used during compilation.
