If I'm not wrong, projects like Spock doesn't like @CompileStatic so in
case I would like to statically compile my project, at least I should be
telling the compiler not to compile statically my specifications. Something
like:
withConfig(configuration) {
source(unitValidator: { unit -> !unit.AST.classes.any {
it.name.endsWith('Spec') } }) {
ast(CompileStatic)
}
}
my two cents
