GroovyCompiler (Spring Boot API)

java.lang.Object
- org.springframework.boot.cli.compiler.GroovyCompiler

```
public class GroovyCompiler
extends Object
```
Compiler for Groovy sources. Primarily a simple Facade for GroovyClassLoader.parseClass(GroovyCodeSource) with the following additional features:
- CompilerAutoConfiguration strategies will be read from META-INF/services/org.springframework.boot.cli.compiler.CompilerAutoConfiguration (per the standard java ServiceLoader contract) and applied during compilation
- Multiple classes can be returned if the Groovy source defines more than one Class
- Generated class files can also be loaded using ClassLoader.getResource(String)
