--------------------------------------
Summary: Random resolution of an overloaded method with arrays as
last parameter called without an argument
Key: GROOVY-7710
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7710
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Static Type Checker
Affects Versions: 2.4.5
Reporter: Frank Pavageau
Assignee: Cédric Champeau
When calling a method with overloads that have arrays as their last parameter
(such as {{Arrays.sort()}} or {{Arrays.hashCode()}} that have multiple
overloads, e.g. with all primitive arrays) but no argument (valid since an
array is equivalent to varargs in Groovy), the static type checker resolves to
the first (random) method instead of failing because of the ambiguous call.
I have a fix for the bug, but it's based on my pull request for GROOVY-7420 as
it's in the same method and I wanted to avoid a painful merge. I'd rather see
that fix applied first before creating a new PR, but could extract the same
kind of fix based on the current code if necessary, though.
