Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-11204:
--------------------------------------

GROOVY-11258 discusses the possibility of adding a rule like java's to the 
method selection where the most-specific type is the one used.  In this case, 
when 2 overloads are available for the {{MyConfigurer}} argument:
{code:java}
SecurityConfigurer AbstractConfiguredSecurityBuilder.apply(
  org.springframework.security.config.annotation.SecurityConfigurer)
SecurityConfigurerAdapter AbstractConfiguredSecurityBuilder.apply(
  org.springframework.security.config.annotation.SecurityConfigurerAdapter)
{code}

Because {{SecurityConfigurerAdapter}} is a {{SecurityConfigurer}}, the 
{{SecurityConfigurer}} overload would be discarded (kind of like covariant 
bride methods).

> I'm writing a Spring Security configurer and trying to add it to my 
> configuration using {{apply(C)}}, but the Groovy compiler selects the wrong 
> overload, and necessary initialization is not performed.

> // AbstractHttpConfigurer extends SecurityConfigurerAdapter
> class MyConfigurer extends AbstractHttpConfigurer<MyConfigurer, HttpSecurity> 
> {}
> SecurityFilterChain securityFilterChain(HttpSecurity http) {
>   http.apply(new MyConfigurer())
>      // ^ should select apply(SecurityConfigurerAdapter), but selects 
> apply(SecurityConfigurer)
>     .and()
>     .build()
> }
> securityFilterChain(new HttpSecurity({ }, new AuthenticationManagerBuilder({ 
> }), [:]))
> {code}
> This is probably a result of an edge case in the generics, since the bounds 
> on the overloads are determined by type parameters.
