John Wagenleitner commented on GROOVY-7933:
-------------------------------------------
I am able to reproduce and also find that, as reported, adding CompileStatic or
casting makes it pass.
{code}
public class Demo {
public String a(boolean a) {
'boolean was called'
}
public String a(Object a) {
'Object was called'
}
static void main(args) {
assert new Demo().a((boolean)true) == 'boolean was called' //pass
assert new Demo().a(true) == 'boolean was called' //fail
}
}
{code}
> Incorrect boxing of boolean primitive types
> -------------------------------------------

> Key: GROOVY-7933
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7933
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: groovy-runtime
> Affects Versions: 2.4.7
> Reporter: Henri Tremblay
>
> A boolean primitive type seems to be boxed for no apparent reason. See the
> example below. The problem disappear when using @CompileStatic or if
> explicitly casting to (boolean).
> {code:java}
> public class Demo {
> public void a(boolean a){
> System.out.println("boolean was called");
> }
> public void a(Object a){
> System.out.println("Object was called");
> }
> }
> class Groovy {
> static void main(String[] args) {
> def demo = new Demo()
> demo.a(true)
> }
> }
> {code}
> *Output:*
> Object was called
