Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-10996:
--------------------------------------

I get no error for this script under Groovy 4.0.11.  We need a simple 
recreation script or project.
{code:groovy}
def gcl = new GroovyClassLoader()
gcl.parseClass '''package foo.bar
import java.lang.annotation.*
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.CLASS)
@Target(ElementType.TYPE)
@interface Tag {
  Class value()
}
'''
gcl.parseClass '''package foo.bar
class Baz {
}
'''
gcl.parseClass '''package foo.bar
@Tag(value = foo.bar.Baz.class)
class Pogo {
}
'''
print gcl.loadClass('foo.bar.Pogo').newInstance()
{code}

> Compilation issue in Groovy 4

>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Compiler
>            Reporter: Marat Kamalov
>            Priority: Major
>
> We migrate the application to Groovy 4 and got an issue:
> 1) We use GroovyClassLoader to load *.groovy written classes to a classloader
> 2) Before the migration we used Groovy 3.0.15.
> 3) After the migration to 4.0.10 I've got the following error:
> {code:java}
> Only classes and closures can be used for attribute 'value' in 
> @org.openl.rules.ruleservice.core.annotations.ServiceExtraMethod
>  @ line 18, column 30.
>        @ServiceExtraMethod(value = 
> org.openl.generated.services.ServiceExtraMethodHandler2Impl.class)
>                                 ^ {code}
> 4) If the annotation definition changed from @ServiceExtraMethod(value = 
> org.openl.generated.services.ServiceExtraMethodHandler2Impl.class) to 
> @ServiceExtraMethod(value = 
> org.openl.generated.services.ServiceExtraMethodHandler2Impl) then the code is 
> compiled successfully.
> Why does the compilation start to fail with .class? I can't reproduce the 
> same issue on IntelliJ IDEA.
> Can you suggest what to try? Is it expected for Groovy to stop supporting 
> .class in Groovy 4?
