Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-9712:
-------------------------------------
Another way of looking at this is that field/property uses the
generalized-typename rule and a method's return type uses standard-typename
rule. The later requires a capital letter (A-Z) as the first name character.
The former has allowances for lowercase names. I'm not sure why this
distinction exists in the parser.
{code}
generalClassOrInterfaceType
options { baseContext = classOrInterfaceType; }
: qualifiedClassName typeArguments?
;
standardClassOrInterfaceType
options { baseContext = classOrInterfaceType; }
: qualifiedStandardClassName typeArguments?
;
{code}

> Key: GROOVY-9712
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9712
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler
> Affects Versions: 3.0.5
> Environment: Windows 10 version 1809
> Groovy 3.0.5
> Reporter: Ted Lundqvist
> Assignee: Eric Milles
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> Compiling the code below with groovyc results in the following error message:
> org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup
> failed:
> Ö_ClassWithUlmaut.groovy: 2: Unexpected input: '(' @ line 2, column 41.
> Ö_ClassWithUlmaut getInstance(){
> ^
> 1 error
>
> The file is encoded in Windows-1252 and I'm compiling it with the following
> command:
> \Tools\groovy-3.0.5\bin\groovyc --encoding Windows-1252
> Ö_ClassWithUlmaut.groovy
> Compiling with version 2.5.8 works fine
>
> The problem only seem to occur when the class name starts with a unicode
> character i.e. the problem doesn't occur if the class name has an unicode in
> it as long as it isn't the first character
> Example:
> {code:java}
> class Ö_ClassWithUlmaut {
> static Ö_ClassWithUlmaut getInstance(){
> }
> }
> {code}
