Eric Milles updated GROOVY-5773:
--------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 4.x)
> Problem distinguishing !=~ and != ~ plus similiar ones
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-5773
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-5773
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: parser, parser-antlr2, syntax
> Reporter: Jochen Theodorou
> Priority: Major
>
> In Groovy if you see x==\~y and x == \~y you can can get a problem, because
> it is easy to oversee the space in between, changing the meaning of the
> compare. The problem is toped by x != \~y being the negation of x == \~y, but
> there is no negation for ==\~. This issue is therefore asking for a
> replacement of the operators ==\~ and =\~ in a way that allows the negation
> too and is still readable. For this no unary operator symbol should follow
> the equals if equals is kept.
