Anton Pryamostanov commented on GROOVY-8938:
--------------------------------------------
Many thanks for the feedback, guys!
The issue can be closed, there are no immediate actions required.
Once there is time to look on any refactoring (if needed), this can be looked
again onto.
> Final field caching issues in inherited field.
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-8938
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8938
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: groovy-runtime
> Affects Versions: 2.5.4
> Reporter: Anton Pryamostanov
> Priority: Critical
>
> Note: **this seems to be a quite major issue**, kindly look at this one with
> emphasis.
> Please see the below test case:
> SubClass extends the SuperClass and overrides the field "inheritedField".
> {code}
> class OtherClass {
> String otherField
> OtherClass(String otherField) {
> this.otherField = otherField
> }
> String toString() {
> return otherField
> }
> }
> class SuperClass {
> final OtherClass inheritedField = new OtherClass("Super Class String")
> }
> class SubClass extends SuperClass {
> final OtherClass inheritedField = new OtherClass("Sub Class String")
> }
> SuperClass superClass = new SuperClass()
> SubClass subClass = new SubClass()
> assert subClass.inheritedField.toString() == "Sub Class String"
> {code}
> *Actual result*: assertion fails
> *Expected result*: assertion should pass
> *Note*: If "final" modifier is removed, assertion passes as expected.
> This seems an issue with final field caching.
> Assertion error text:
> {code}
> Assertion failed:
> assert subClass.inheritedField.toString() == "Sub Class String"
> | | | |
> | | | false
> | | 'Super Class String'
