using plugin classes from _Events.groovy.

[Luke Daley]

In a plugin I am working on, I need to use classes from src/groovy in  
my _Events.groovy.

The problem is that when _Events.groovy is sourced those classes  
aren't compiled and available.

Any options other than resorting to loadClass() ?

Nope, don't think so. Other than put the classes in a JAR file.

I agree, I had to resort to loadClass as well, it was a little nasty, but there wasn't that much code.

I went with that.

I also had to force a compile, but it's invoked only before it's  
actually needed, not on each execution of _Events.

Any objections to that?

It feels a little iffy to me, but I can't find any negative side  
affects or another way.
