    Used by all child classes to create a new instance and get the name right.
    Parameters:
    clazz - the Grails class
    trailingName - the trailing part of the name for this class type
- Method Detail
  - public java.lang.Class<?> getClazz()
  - public java.lang.String getFullName()
  - public GrailsApplication getGrailsApplication()
  - public java.lang.String getLogicalPropertyName()
  - public groovy.lang.MetaClass getMetaClass()
    
    Returns:
    the metaClass
  - public java.lang.String getName()
  - public java.lang.String getNaturalName()
  - public java.lang.String getPackageName()
  - public java.beans.PropertyDescriptor[] getPropertyDescriptors()
  - public java.lang.String getPropertyName()
  - <T> protected T getPropertyOrStaticPropertyOrFieldValue(java.lang.String name, java.lang.Class<T> type)
    
    Looks for a property of the reference instance with a given name and type.
    
    If found its value is returned. We follow the Java bean conventions with augmentation for groovy support and static fields/properties. We will therefore match, in this order:
    1. Public static field
    2. Public static property with getter method
    3. Standard public bean property (with getter or just public field, using normal introspection)
    Returns:
    property value or null if no property or static field was found
  - public java.lang.Class<?> getPropertyType(java.lang.String typeName)
  - <T> public T getPropertyValue(java.lang.String propName, java.lang.Class<T> type)
    
    Get the value of the named property, with support for static properties in both Java and Groovy classes (which as of Groovy JSR 1.0 RC 01 only have getters in the metaClass)
    Parameters:
    propName
    type
    Returns:
    The property value or null
  - public java.lang.Object getPropertyValue(java.lang.String propName)
  - public java.lang.Object getPropertyValueObject(java.lang.String propertyNAme)
  - @java.lang.Deprecated public org.springframework.beans.BeanWrapper getReference()
    
    Used to get configured property values.
    deprecated:
    
    Returns:
    BeanWrapper instance that holds reference
  - public java.lang.Object getReferenceInstance()
  - public java.lang.String getShortName()
  - <T> public T getStaticPropertyValue(java.lang.String propName, java.lang.Class<T> type)
    
    Get the value of the named static property.
    Parameters:
    propName
    type
    Returns:
    The property value or null
  - public boolean hasMetaMethod(java.lang.String methodName)
  - public boolean hasMetaMethod(java.lang.String methodName, java.lang.Object[] args)
  - public boolean hasMetaProperty(java.lang.String propName)
  - public boolean hasProperty(java.lang.String propName)
  - public boolean isAbstract()
  - public boolean isActionMethod(java.lang.String methodName)
  - public boolean isReadableProperty(java.lang.String propName)
  - public java.lang.Object newInstance()
  - public void setGrailsApplication(GrailsApplication grailsApplication)
  - @java.lang.Override public java.lang.String toString()
