Way to simulate class categorization in Java

Some programming languages have the feature of adding "Categories" to classes (for example Objective-C), this means, adding new functionality to a class without subclassing.



I really find it useful, but I can't imagine a way of simulating this feature in Java.



So the question is:



How would look an elegant pattern to simulate class categories in Java? What I'm really looking for is achieving the same effect rather of making it the same way.
