# GroovyBuilderScope

interface GroovyBuilderScope : GroovyObject(source)

Provides a dynamic dispatching DSL with Groovy semantics for better integration with plugins that rely on Groovy builders such as the core `maven` plugin.

It supports Groovy keyword arguments and arbitrary nesting, for instance, the following Groovy code:

    repository(url: "scp://repos.mycompany.com/releases") {
      authentication(userName: "me", password: "myPassword")
    }

Can be mechanically translated to the following Kotlin with the aid of `withGroovyBuilder`:

    withGroovyBuilder {
      "repository"("url" to "scp://repos.mycompany.com/releases") {
        "authentication"("userName" to "me", "password" to "myPassword")
      }
    }
