Class ConfigureUtil
 Plugins should avoid using this class and methods that use Closure as this makes the plugin harder to use in other languages. Instead, plugins should create methods that use Action.
 Here's an example pseudocode:
 
     interface MyOptions {
         RegularFileProperty getOptionsFile()
     }
     abstract class MyExtension {
         private final MyOptions options
         @Inject abstract ObjectFactory getObjectFactory()
         public MyExtension() {
             this.options = getObjectFactory().newInstance(MyOptions)
         }
         public void options(Action<? extends MyOptions>  action) {
              action.execute(options)
         }
     }
     extensions.create("myExtension", MyExtension)
     myExtension {
         options {
             optionsFile = layout.projectDirectory.file("options.properties")
         }
     }
 
 
 Gradle automatically generates a Closure-taking method at runtime for each method with an Action as a single argument as long as the object is created with ObjectFactory.newInstance(Class, Object...).
 
 As a last resort, to apply some configuration represented by a Groovy Closure, a plugin can use Project.configure(Object, Closure).

configureDeprecated.Configures targetwithconfigureClosure, via theConfigurableinterface if necessary.If targetdoes not implementConfigurableinterface, it is set as the delegate of a clone ofconfigureClosurewith a resolve strategy ofDELEGATE_FIRST.If targetdoes implement theConfigurableinterface, theconfigureClosurewill be passed todelegate'sConfigurable.configure(Closure)method.- Parameters:
- configureClosure- The configuration closure
- target- The object to be configured
- Returns:
- The delegate param
