DEFAULT

public static final CompilerConfiguration DEFAULT

A convenience for getting a default configuration. Do not modify it! See CompilerConfiguration(Properties) for an example on how to make a suitable copy to modify. But if you're really starting from a default context, then you probably just want new CompilerConfiguration().

Constructor Detail

CompilerConfiguration

public CompilerConfiguration()

Sets the Flags to defaults.

CompilerConfiguration

public CompilerConfiguration(CompilerConfiguration configuration)

Copy constructor. Use this if you have a mostly correct configuration for your compilation but you want to make a some changes programmatically. An important reason to prefer this approach is that your code will most likely be forward compatible with future changes to this configuration API.
An example of this copy constructor at work:

    // In all likelihood there is already a configuration in your code's context
    // for you to copy, but for the sake of this example we'll use the global default.
    CompilerConfiguration myConfiguration = new CompilerConfiguration(CompilerConfiguration.DEFAULT);
    myConfiguration.setDebug(true);

Parameters:

configuration - The configuration to copy.

CompilerConfiguration

public CompilerConfiguration(Properties configuration)
                      throws ConfigurationException

Sets the Flags to the specified configuration, with defaults for those not supplied. Note that those "defaults" here do not include checking the settings in System.getProperties() in general, only file.encoding, groovy.target.directory and groovy.source.encoding are.
If you want to set a few flags but keep Groovy's default configuration behavior then be sure to make your settings in a Properties that is backed by System.getProperties() (which is done using this constructor).
That might be done like this:

    Properties myProperties = new Properties(System.getProperties());
    myProperties.setProperty("groovy.output.debug", "true");
    myConfiguration = new CompilerConfiguration(myProperties);
 

And you also have to contend with a possible SecurityException when getting the system properties (See System.getProperties()).
An safer method would be to copy a default CompilerConfiguration and make your changes there using the setter.

    // In all likelihood there is already a configuration for you to copy,
    // but for the sake of this example we'll use the global default.
    CompilerConfiguration myConfiguration = new CompilerConfiguration(CompilerConfiguration.DEFAULT);
    myConfiguration.setDebug(true);
 

Another reason to use the copy constructor rather than this one is that you must call setOutput(java.io.PrintWriter). Calling setOutput(null) is valid and will set up a PrintWriter to a bit bucket. The copy constructor will of course set the same one as the original.
