String.metaClass.myMethod = { println "foo" }
Special 'Case' implementation for Class, which allows testing for a certain class in a switch statement. For example:
switch( obj ) {
case List :
// obj is a list

switchValue - the switch valueSets/updates the metaclass for a given class to a closure.
closure - the closure representing the new metaclassExtend class globally with category methods.
categoryClass - a category class to useExtend class globally with category methods.
categoryClass - a category class to useExtend class globally with category methods. All methods for given class and all super classes will be added to the class.

Helper to construct a new instance from the given arguments.
The constructor is called based on the number and types in the
args array. Use newInstance(null) or simply
newInstance() for the default (no-arg) constructor.
