    - #### isUseReflection

          public static boolean isUseReflection()

    - #### getMetaClassRegistry

          public static MetaClassRegistry getMetaClassRegistry()

    - #### setKeepJavaMetaClasses

          public static void setKeepJavaMetaClasses(boolean keepJavaMetaClasses)

    - #### isKeepJavaMetaClasses

          public static boolean isKeepJavaMetaClasses()

    - #### stopThreadedReferenceManager

          public static void stopThreadedReferenceManager()

      This method can be used to ensure that no threaded created by a reference manager will be active. This is useful if the Groovy runtime itself is loaded through a class loader which should be disposed off. Without calling this method and if a threaded reference manager is active the class loader cannot be unloaded! Per default no threaded manager will be used.
