> Key: GROOVY-9758
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9758
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Groovysh
> Affects Versions: 3.0.3, 2.5.12
> Reporter: Mykola Golubyev
> Priority: Major
>
> in groovy sh, when you import class that doesn't exist, the error you see is
> NullPointer instead of class not found.
> I tracked the problem to ImportCommand class
>
> {code:java}
> catch (CompilationFailedException e) {
> def msg = "Invalid import definition: '${importSpec}'; reason:
> $e.message" // TODO: i18n
> log.debug(msg, e)
> fail(msg)
> }
> finally {
> // Remove the class generated while testing the import syntax
> classLoader.removeClassCacheEntry(type?.name) <-- null is passed to
> remove call inside
> }
>
> {code}
> I don't know the process, but I wouldn't mind to create PR
