As of grails 3.3.0

All code that uses the GrailsDomainClass or GrailsDomainClassProperty classes should be re-written to use the mapping context api.

To get started, inject the grailsDomainClassMappingContext bean. See the api documentation for more information on the MappingContext, PersistentEntity (GrailsDomainClass), and PersistentProperty(GrailsDomainClassProperty)

For example:

class MyService {
    def grailsDomainClassMappingContext //inject

    def accessDomainProperties(Class clazz) {
        PersistentEntity entityClass = grailsDomainClassMappingContext.getPersistentEntity(clazz.name)
        List persistentPropertyList = entityClass.persistentProperties
        persistentPropertyList.each { property ->
            println property.name
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps someone.
