Keegan Witt updated GROOVY-9717:
--------------------------------
Description:
{code:java}
@CustomAnnotation
package com.foo
Foo {}
@interface CustomAnnotation {}
{code}
Generates a stub that has {{@com.foo.CustomAnnotationpackage}} in _Foo.java_,
which javac won't compile because it requires package annotations to be in
_package-info.java_. Groovy 2.4 and 2.5 don't include this annotation in the
stub.
Ideally, the annotation would be included if in _package-info.groovy_, and
otherwise omitted. But if we had to, and always omitted it, it at least
wouldn't be a regression (assuming this difference wasn't made on purpose).
Possibly we should also consider having the Groovy compiler not allow
annotations on packages if not in package-info.groovy, though this would have
to be a Groovy 4 thing, and not only if it makes sense.

cases there are for using the annotation outside a package info file.
