Groovy with block in Java

In groovy, there is a with block, which can be used to call methods on a object like this:

obj.with
{
   method1()
   method2()
}

where method1,method2 are methods for object obj.

Is the same is possible in Java 7? I mean can we make some way to do this in java?

Thanks in advance.

There isn't anything similar to with in Java 7. The closest you can do is use an Initialization block while instantiating an anonymous class:

       new Test() {
            {
                method1();
                method2();
            }
        };

which might not suit every case, as you can only use it for initialization.

Where Test is:

class Test{
    public void method1() {
        System.out.println(1);
    }

    public void method2() {
        System.out.println(2);
    }
}
