## [Groovy] Annotation Type DelegateAsync

- grails.async.DelegateAsync

- An AST transformation that takes each method in the given class and adds a delegate method that returns a Promise and executes the method asynchronously. For example given the following class:

       class BookApi {
          List listBooksByTitle(String title) { }
       }

  If the annotation is applied to a new class:

       @DelegateAsync(BookApi)
       class AsyncBookApi {}

  The resulting class is transformed into:

       class AsyncBookApi {
           private BookApi $bookApi
           Promise> listBooksByTitle(String title) {
              (Promise>)Promises.createPromise {
                  $bookApi.listBooksByTitle(title)
              }
           }
       }
