reflection - Groovy: how to get properties declared in base class -

in following code, need properties available in child class (i.e. foo, bar). not interested in other properties added groovy.

class parent {def foo} class child extends parent {def bar} 

so far none of these gets result:

println child.fields println child.properties.each{k,v->println "$k -> $v"} println child.declaredfields.findall { !it.synthetic }.collect {it.name} println child.methods.findall {it.name.startswith("get")}.collect {it.name} 

i trying find out direct method give me this.

this give need:

assert ['foo', 'class', 'bar'] == b.metaclass.properties*.name
