> Key: GROOVY-7976
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7976
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: groovy-jdk
> Affects Versions: 2.4.7
> Reporter: Mauro Molinari
> Assignee: Paul King
> Fix For: 2.4.8
>
>
> Methods like
> {{org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.DefaultGroovyMethods.sort(Iterable<T>, boolean,
> Comparator<T>)}} and all the others alike should be changed to accept a
> {{Comparator<? super T>}}, otherwise if you use {{@CompileStatic}} you'll get
> compiler errors as soon as you try to sort an Iterable/Collection using a
> comparator that accept superclass instances.
