Eric Milles updated GROOVY-8737:
--------------------------------
Labels: varargs (was: )
> STC Method resolution fails if other methods with more parameters exist
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-8737
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8737
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Static compilation
> Affects Versions: 2.4.15, 3.0.0-alpha-3, 2.5.1
> Environment: Ubuntu 18.04, Java 8u181
> Reporter: Patric Bechtel
> Priority: Major
> Labels: varargs
>
> Given two classes as follows
> {code:java}
> @groovy.transform.CompileStatic
> class A {
> public static String msg( String key, Object[] args ) { "key=$key,
> args=$args" }
> public static String msg( String key, Object[] args, Object[] parts ) {
> "key=$key, args=$args, parts=$parts" }
> public static String msg( String key, Object[] args, String[] names ) {
> "key=$key, args=$args, names=$names" }
> }
> {code}
> and
> {code:java}
> @groovy.transform.CompileStatic
> public class B {
> public static void main( String[] args ) {
> println A.msg( 'hello', [ 'world' ] as Object[] )
> }
> }
> {code}
> will not compile with the error
> {noformat}
> B.groovy: 4: [Static type checking] - Reference to method is ambiguous.
> Cannot choose between [java.lang.String A#msg(java.lang.String,
> java.lang.Object[], java.lang.Object[]), java.lang.String
> A#msg(java.lang.String, java.lang.Object[], java.lang.String[])]
> @ line 4, column 15.
> println A.msg( 'hello', [ 'world' ] as Object[] )
> {noformat}
> Though there's a perfect match for the called method, it tries to choose one
> of the longer signatures.
