Description

Currently, it's only possible to create instance groovy methods.
Such as
file = new File("text.txt")
file.eachLine

{ line | println it }

But we cannot currently add static methods, such as (GROOVY-260):
thread = Thread.start {
process = "some long running process".execute();
process.waitFor();
}
