> If one annotates a groovy class with @Builder and that class extends from another class, then the generated builder does not support setting the parent class properties.
> This is especially problematic when mixin groovy builders in java code.
> e.g. the following class shows what will and will not compile
> {code:java}
> // Animal.groovy
> import groovy.transform.builder.Builder
> import groovy.transform.builder.SimpleStrategy
> @Builder(builderStrategy = SimpleStrategy)
> class Animal {
>    String color
>     int legs
> }
> // Pet.groovy
> import groovy.transform.builder.Builder
> import groovy.transform.builder.SimpleStrategy
> @Builder(builderStrategy = SimpleStrategy)
> class Pet extends Animal {
>     String name
> }
> // PetTest.java
> import org.junit.Test;
> import static org.junit.Assert.*;
> public class PetTest {
>     @Test public void createPet() {
>         // Pet pet = new Pet().setColor("white").setLegs(4).setName("Bobby"); does not compile
>         Pet pet = (Pet) new Pet().setName("Bobby").setColor("white").setLegs(4);
>         assertTrue(pet.getLegs() == 4);
>     }
> }
> {code}
