------------------------------------------------------------

Just quickly looking at our code, it looks like we are trying to make it a 
singleton and deprecate the constructor. We changed it from public to private - 
that was a binary breaking change. I wonder whether we can think of an 
alternative evolution path that doesn't break binary compatibility. GContracts 
can be changed but I wonder how many other frameworks are doing  similar things.

>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Paul King
>            Priority: Minor
>
> The following runs fine in 2.5.8 (needs gcontracts and asm jars on classpath):
> {code}
> import org.gcontracts.annotations.Invariant
> import groovy.transform.*
> @Invariant({ month >= 1 && month <= 12 && day >= 1 && day <= lastDay[month-1] 
> })
> @MapConstructor
> @ToString(includeNames=true)
> class Calendar {
>     private static final int[] lastDay = [31,29,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31]
>     int month
>     int day
>     
>     def mutateByOneMonth() {
>         month++
>     }
> }
> new Calendar(month: 2, day: 2).mutateByOneMonth() // Okay
> new Calendar(month: 12, day: 2).mutateByOneMonth() // ClassInvariantViolation
> new Calendar(month: 1, day: 31).mutateByOneMonth() // ClassInvariantViolation
> {code}
> but with 3.0.0-beta-3 I get:
> {noformat}
> java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method 
> org.codehaus.groovy.ast.stmt.EmptyStatement.<init>()V from class 
> org.gcontracts.generation.TryCatchBlockGenerator
> {noformat}
> We should check whether we have made an unneeded breaking change or whether a 
> gcontracts upgrade might be needed.
