Mastering Gradle

Conventions

Code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles are shown as follows: "Gradle shares the same JVM options set by the environment variable JAVA_OPTS."

    throw new MissingMethodException(name, this.class, args)
  }
}
