Henri Tremblay commented on GROOVY-7933: ---------------------------------------- Great. Thanks [~jwagenleitner]. Do you confirm this is not the intended behavior? > 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 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
