    Description

      try this:

      C:\>groovy -e "println(int.class)"
      int
      C:\>groovy -e "println(void.class)"
      script_from_command_line: 1: Unknown type: "void" at line: 1 column: 9. File: script_from_command_line @ line 1, column 9.
      1 Error

      void.class is a valid class in Java, and should be that in groovy, too.

      I know Void class is accessible, but this is not adequate, as void.class and Void.class are different (return false for equals method), just like int.class and Integer.class are different.
