  - ### isFork

    @Input public boolean isFork()

    Sets whether to run the Groovy compiler in a separate process. Defaults to `true`.

  - ### getConfigurationScript

    @Optional @PathSensitive(NONE) @InputFile public @Nullable File getConfigurationScript()
    A Groovy script file that configures the compiler, allowing extensive control over how the code is compiled.

    The script is executed as Groovy code, with the following context:

    - The instance of CompilerConfiguration available as the `configuration` variable.
    - All static members of CompilerCustomizationBuilder pre imported.

    This facilitates the following pattern:

        withConfig(configuration) {
          // use compiler configuration DSL here
        }

    For example, to activate type checking for all Groovy classes…

        import groovy.transform.TypeChecked

        withConfig(configuration) {
            ast(TypeChecked)
        }

    Please see the Groovy compiler customization builder documentation for more information about the compiler configuration DSL.

    This feature is only available if compiling with Groovy 2.1 or later.

  - ### setConfigurationScript

    public void setConfigurationScript(@Nullable File configurationFile)
    Sets the path to the groovy configuration file.
    See Also:
      - `getConfigurationScript()`

  - ### isJavaAnnotationProcessing

    @Input public boolean isJavaAnnotationProcessing()
    Whether the Groovy code should be subject to Java annotation processing.

    Annotation processing of Groovy code works by having annotation processors visit the Java stubs generated by the Groovy compiler in order to support joint compilation of Groovy and Java source.

    When set to `true`, stubs will be unconditionally generated for all Groovy sources, and Java annotations processors will be executed on those stubs.

    When this option is set to `false` (the default), Groovy code will not be subject to annotation processing, but any joint compiled Java code will be. If the compiler argument `"-proc:none"` was specified as part of the Java compile options, the value of this flag will be ignored. No annotation processing will be performed regardless, on Java or Groovy source.

  - ### setJavaAnnotationProcessing

    public void setJavaAnnotationProcessing(boolean javaAnnotationProcessing)
    Sets whether Java annotation processors should process annotations on stubs. Defaults to `false`.

    Known options are:

    indy

    int

      Enable or disable all optimizations. Note that some optimizations might be mutually exclusive.
