Description

I'm writing a Class that extends groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader, just to make a personalized Loader (that will load classes from database, rather than the filesystem).
In my subclass I had to override a parseClass() method from GroovyClassloader and I wish to reutilize the pre-existing groovy.lang.GroovyClassLoader.ClassCollector class, to collect my generated class, but there is no getter for the "generatedClass" atribute in this class!

I know I can do this on my own, but I will have to re-pack it (since I use the groovy-all-xxx.jar) every time I want to upgrade to the latest version!

Please, you could make a getter for it or at least, turn this protected instead of private in the following versions.
Will made life easier to extend this class without rewritting a couple of things!
