Jörg Prante commented on GROOVY-7885:
-------------------------------------
Here is the code again, but hopefully formatted. Sorry.
{code}
class A {
Object o
A() {
def b = B.newInstance()
o = "Hello"
b.execute()
}
Object val() {
o
}
class B {
void execute() {
println val()
}
}
}
def a = new A()
{code}
and
{code}
class A {
Object o
A() {
def b = new B()
o = "Hello"
b.execute()
}
Object val() {
o
}
class B {
void execute() {
println val()
}
}
}
def a = new A()
{code}
> referencing method in outer class from inner class throws Exception when
> using newInstance()
