----------------------------------------------

             Summary: Assignments in closures can introduce issues in flow 
typing
                 Key: GROOVY-11471
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11471
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Static Type Checker
            Reporter: Thodoris Sotiropoulos


I have the following program


{code:java}
class Test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    def x = 1
    Closure m = null
    if (true) {
      m = {x = ""}
    }
    x = 1
    m()
  }
} {code}
h3. Actual behavior

The code compiles, but I get ClassCastException at runtime
{code:java}
 Exception in thread "main" 
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.typehandling.GroovyCastException: Cannot cast 
object '' with class 'java.lang.String' to class 'java.lang.Integer'

        at Test.main(test.groovy:9)
{code}
h3. Expected behavior

The code should have been rejected.
