------------------------------------
Summary: Remove $getLookup method generation (Groovy 4+)
Key: GROOVY-10931
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-10931
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Wish
Components: class generator, Compiler
Affects Versions: 4.0.9, 5.0.0-alpha-1
Reporter: Eric Milles
Assignee: Eric Milles
The new {{$getLookup()}} method was discussed somewhat in the comments of
GROOVY-10273. Groovy 3 has had JEP 396 (illegal access enforcement) support
backported, without {{$getLookup}}. So, I'd like to restart the discussion to
find out if there are any scenarios that Groovy 4 supports that don't have a
test case in Groovy 3. And if there are no scenarios that remain, I'd like to
propose the removal of {{$getLookup}} method generation.
I have disabled its generation in the Groovy 5 codebase, and there are no tests
that fail. So I have good confidence that it can be removed and the security
hole can be plugged.
