@GroovyASTTransformation(phase = CompilePhase.CONVERSION)
public class RecordBaseASTStubber
extends AbstractASTTransformation

Joint-compilation stubber for RecordBase. For emulated records (target < JDK16 or explicit mode = EMULATE) it produces the same Java-callable surface that the runtime transform produces at SEMANTIC_ANALYSIS:

• Property modifier flips so the stub generator's Verifier sub-pass emits componentName() accessors instead of getComponentName() and skips setter synthesis on the (now-final) properties.
• Stub placeholders for the Groovy-specific record convenience methods — getAt(int), toList(), toMap(), size(), plus the opt-in copyWith(Map) and components() when enabled via @RecordOptions.

The "should we add this?" predicates are shared with the full transform via package-private statics on RecordTypeASTTransformation, so the stub never exposes a method the runtime won't add (matching the same subset invariant as @Delegate's shared filter helpers).

The canonical constructor on the stub comes transitively from the existing @TupleConstructor stubber, which @RecordType's @AnnotationCollector pulls in.

Native records. When the class would compile as a native JVM record (target >= JDK16 and mode != EMULATE), the stub generator already renders record Foo(...) syntax via the back-channel introduced by GROOVY-11974, and javac synthesises the canonical constructor and component accessors itself. This stubber detects that case via RecordTypeASTTransformation.wouldBeNativeRecord and bails out; applying property modifier flips or stubbing convenience methods on a native-record AST would interfere with subsequent record-component processing.
