--------------------------------------------------------------
I'm working on a pull request that would allow this case to work as expected:
{code:java}
import java.util.regex.Pattern
abstract class Groovy3 {
Groovy3(String s) { println "String" }
Groovy3(Pattern p) { println "Pattern" }
}
@groovy.transform.InheritConstructors
class Groovy4 extends Groovy3 {
}
new Groovy4((String) null)
{code}
With this, you can work around the dynamic Groovy problem using one of the
following on Groovy4:
# @CompileStatic
# @InheritConstructors
# cast/coerce arguments in super ctor calls

> Key: GROOVY-9244
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9244
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.4.7, 2.5.7
> Environment: I tried in GroovyConsole 2.4.7 and Groovy web console
> 2.5.7
> Reporter: Björn Kautler
> Priority: Major
>
> Given this code:
> {noformat}
> import java.util.regex.Pattern
> abstract class Groovy3 {
> Groovy3(String s) { println "String" }
> Groovy3(Pattern p) { println "Pattern" }
> }
> class Groovy4 extends Groovy3 {
> Groovy4(String s) { super(s) }
> Groovy4(Pattern p) { super(p) }
> }
> class Groovy5 extends Groovy3 {
> Groovy5(String s) { super(s as String) }
> Groovy5(Pattern p) { super(p as Pattern) }
> }
> class Groovy6 {
> Groovy6(String s) { println "String" }
> Groovy6(Pattern p) { println "Pattern" }
> }
> new Groovy3(null as String) { }
> new Groovy4(null as String)
> new Groovy5(null as String)
> new Groovy6(null as String)
> {noformat}
> Groovy3ish and Groovy4 instantiation fail
> Groovy5 and Groovy6 instantiation succeed and print {{String}}.
> I did not find a way to make the Groovy3ish one work, except for doing it the
> Groovy4 way, but no chance with an anonymous subclass.
> From what I observed, I guess the anonymous subclass does it like Groovy4 but
> should do it like Groovy5 to properly select the super constructor.
