Paul King updated GROOVY-3539:
------------------------------
Description:
This program causes the compiler to throw a syntax error. However it should be
a semantic error.
{code}
public class B {
public void Test() {
new NotExist()
}
}
{code}
We could review usage of {{SyntaxErrorMessage}} and throw a different error
instead where appropriate.
They are converted into compilation exceptions later so not really visible to
users of the language but relevant for IDEs.
