Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-11415:
--------------------------------------
In any case, I asked at the time this was originally committed why it was put
into Groovy 4. I have lost track of my original comments and I think my -1 for
the 4.0.22 release got lost due to a mailing list infra issue.
I do not understand why the bytecode should be changed in a point release
unless it is fixing a major issue. Having such a change in Groovy 5 only gives
time for discussion and refinement.

> Key: GROOVY-11415
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11415
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Daniel Sun
> Assignee: Daniel Sun
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.0.0-alpha-9, 4.0.22
>
>
> The bytecode for {{===}} and {{!==}} is to invoke static method, e.g.
> \{{compareIdentical}}, \{{compareNotIdentical}}.
> We could generate better bytecode by leveraging \{{IF_ACMPEQ}},
> \{{IF_ACMPNE}}, which is same to the bytecode generated by Java compiler.
