Jeff Howard commented on WELD-840:
----------------------------------

Agreed.  That patch is simply intended to show you (the Weld developers) where and why things presently aren't working.  It's also sufficient to keep my dev/test environment running until you guys figure out a real fix.  :)

> Weld created proxies need to know how to work with groovy objects.  Currently, weld is attempting to proxy the methods from the groovy.lang.GroovyObject interface which is confusing the groovy runtime.  Groovy objects have a per-class metaclass that is getting used with the wrong class instances.
> Also, weld is using hyphen characters in the generated proxy class names, which breaks groovy's dynamic invoke mechanism.
> The referenced forum thread contains a patch that addresses the groovy incompatabilities in weld's ProxyFactory.java
