Peter Myrén commented on GROOVY-5728:
-------------------------------------
Same problem with non anonymous inner class.
It woks with protected constructor though.
{code}
public abstract class FooMain {
protected FooMain() {}
public abstract String bar();
public static FooMain factory() {
return new FooMain() {
public String bar() { return "xxx"; }
};
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(factory().bar());
}
}
{code}
Tested with groovy 2.4.8
