  - protected ClassNode createStatementsClass()
    
    Creates a synthetic class wrapping this module's statement and method definitions. Generates a main(String[]) method for script execution and a run() method for statement execution. Only invoked when the module contains module-level code (scripts or statements).
    Returns:
    a ClassNode representing the synthetic wrapper class with generated methods
  - protected String extractClassFromFileDescription()
    
    Extracts the class name from the module's description (typically a file path). Strips file extensions, path separators, and URI schemes to derive a valid class name. Used when generating synthetic script wrapper classes.
    Returns:
    a valid class name derived from the description
  - public List<ClassNode> getClasses()
    
    Returns the module's class definitions. If createClassForStatements is true and there are module-level statements, methods, or this is a package-info script, a synthetic class is created to wrap them. This class is automatically inserted at the beginning of the list. The flag is then reset to prevent future synthesis.
    Returns:
    list of ClassNode definitions (may include synthetic wrapper for statements)
  - public SourceUnit getContext()
    
    Returns the source unit for this module (single-file compilation context). Provides access to source code, line mappings, and error reporting.
    Returns:
    the SourceUnit, or null if compiled as part of a batch
  - public String getDescription()
    
    Returns a description of this module. Typically the source file name if available (via context), otherwise a user-supplied description.
    Returns:
    the module description (usually the file path), or null if not set
  - public ImportNode getImport(String alias)
    
    Looks up an import node by its alias name. Searches regular imports and returns the matching node. Caches import alias mappings as node metadata for performance.
    Parameters:
    alias - the imported name to look up
    Returns:
    the ImportNode for that import, or null if not found
  - public ClassNode getImportType(String alias)
    
    Looks up the class type for a regular import by its alias name. Resolves simple names to the actual class they reference.
    Parameters:
    alias - the imported name to look up
    Returns:
    the ClassNode for that import, or null if not found
  - public List<ImportNode> getImports()
    
    Returns a copy of the module's regular import declarations. Includes both simple class imports (e.g., import java.util.List) and aliased imports. Does not include star imports or static imports.
    Returns:
    a copy of the ImportNode list for regular imports
  - public String getMainClassName()
    
    Returns the simple name of the main class for this module. For scripts, this is the synthetic wrapper class name. For modules with classes, this is typically the first class added.
    Returns:
    the main class name, or null if not set
  - public List<MethodNode> getMethods()
    
    Returns the module's top-level method definitions. These are module-level methods typically found in scripts or trait interfaces.
    Returns:
    list of MethodNode definitions
  - public List<ImportNode> getModuleStarImports()
    
    Registers a module-level star import (e.g., import module java.base). Returns module star imports, which are separate from regular wildcard imports for proper JLS 6.4.1 shadowing resolution (type-import-on-demand shadowing).
    Returns:
    star imports from import module declarations
    Since:
    6.0.0
  - public PackageNode getPackage()
    
    Returns the package node for this module. Contains the package declaration and associated annotations.
    Returns:
    the PackageNode, or null if none is declared
  - public String getPackageName()

    Returns:
    the fully qualified package name, or null for the default package
  - public ClassNode getScriptClassDummy()
    
    Returns a synthetic class wrapping this module's statements and methods. Used for scripts: module-level code is collected and placed in a generated class with a main(String[]) method. Configures the base class based on compiler config.
    throws:
    RuntimeException if module description is not set
    
    Returns:
    a ClassNode for script execution
  - public List<ImportNode> getStarImports()
    
    Returns wildcard (star) import declarations (e.g., import java.util.*). These imports make all public classes in a package available without qualification.
    Returns:
    list of ImportNode for wildcard imports
  - public BlockStatement getStatementBlock()
    
    Returns the block of statements defined at module scope. These statements become part of the script's run() method (if module is a script) or remain at module level (if module contains only classes).
    Returns:
    the BlockStatement containing module-level code
  - public Map<String, ImportNode> getStaticImports()
    
    Returns static import declarations (e.g., import static java.lang.Math.PI). Maps simple names to ImportNode objects for static member imports.
    Returns:
    map from simple name to ImportNode for static imports

    Returns:
    the CompileUnit, or null for single-file compilation
  - public boolean hasImportsResolved()
    
    Checks whether imports have been resolved for this module. Import resolution converts import aliases to fully qualified class names and processes import conflicts. This flag tracks whether that phase is complete.
    Returns:
    true if import resolution has been performed
  - public boolean hasPackage()
    
    Checks whether this module declares a package.
    Returns:
    true if a package is declared, false for the default package
  - public boolean hasPackageName()

    Returns:
    true if a non-null package name is declared
  - public boolean isEmpty()
    
    Checks whether this module is empty (no classes or statements). An empty module compiles to no bytecode output.
    Returns:
    true if both class list and statement block are empty

    Sets a description for this module (typically the source file name).
    Parameters:
    description - the description to set
  - public void setImportsResolved(boolean importsResolved)

    importsResolved - true to mark imports as resolved
  - public void setPackage(PackageNode packageNode)
    
    Sets the package declaration for this module.
    Parameters:
    packageNode - the PackageNode for this module
  - public void setPackageName(String packageName)
    
    Sets the package for this module by name. Creates a new PackageNode with the given package name.
    Parameters:
    packageName - the fully qualified package name
  - public void sortClasses()
    
    Sorts classes in dependency order based on class hierarchy. Inner classes and dependent classes are ordered after their dependencies. This ensures that base classes are defined before derived classes during compilation. Does nothing if the module is empty or contains only one class.
  - public void visit(GroovyCodeVisitor visitor)
    
    Accepts a code visitor for AST traversal and processing. Implementation is empty; module-level visitation typically proceeds directly to classes and methods contained within.
    Parameters:
    visitor - the GroovyCodeVisitor to process this node
