Re: Default Method for Groovy 3

That's great news. Not being able to use default interface methods, especially when working with libraries using them in Java code, felt limiting. On Thu, 8 Dec 2016 at 17:40, Daniel Sun wrote: > Hi all, > > > > The new parser(Parrot) supports default method now. You can find > > the ne

Re: SAM type closure coercion

Was that the one case when moaning about other people's work is not frowned upon? Damn, I wish I knew, I would unleash my moaning in public! But seriously, this limitation is very annoying when you work with Ratpack in Groovy. I have moved towards more type safe coding recently and when I learned

Re: The order of modifiers and annotations

Sorry for stealing the thread, but there is one annoying thing that relates to parsing modifiers in Groovy. Is there any chance to fix modifier being mandatory for methods with generic signatures in Parrot? I.e. this is now invalid: T foo(T bar) and has to be written like this to be parsed: pub

Following instructions and reading documentation instead of relying on one's assumptions? Why on earth would you do that? ;) On Tue, Mar 14, 2017 at 12:49 PM, Guillaume Laforge wrote: > Last words... > Following the build instructions properly, and use "gradle" to let it > create the wrapper (ra

FWIW, I've finally managed to get some time to check if Geb will build and its tests pass with this version. Hopefully this is the right forum to report back on how it went. I was particularly interested in that version because it contains an improvement I contributed which allows me to remove sev

Wouldn't it be easier for you then to implement a class which extends groovy.lang.Binding which lazy evaluates your default variables and use that as your script binding instead? On Sun, Nov 26, 2017 at 6:26 PM, bayareagreg wrote: > All right, let me explain why I need this. > In my product, we

Paul, I'm having a go at giving this release a spin by updating Geb's build to use it but unfortunately I'm not having any luck with trying to use the groovy-all artifact. I understand from the earlier thread about updates to the build on the dev list that the jar for that artifact is not publishe

An even less constructive response - you are very wrong, IMHO. :) I always use Gradle's idea plugin on my projects because it gives me far better control on how the IntelliJ project looks like and what it does then if I "natively imported" it, as Cedric calls it. I find native imports very selecti
