> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler, Static compilation
> Affects Versions: 5.0.0-alpha-12
> Reporter: Saravanan
> Assignee: Eric Milles
> Priority: Minor
>
> When using @CompileStatic, this code does not work
> {code:java}
> @Target({ ElementType.METHOD })
> @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> public @interface MyAnnotation {
> Class<?>[] groups() default {};
> Class<? extends MyClazz>[] payloads() default {};
> }{code}
> It causes 2 compile errors
> "Cannot return value of type java.util.ArrayList<#E> for method returning
> java.lang.Class<?>[]" and
> "Cannot return value of type java.util.ArrayList<#E> for method returning
> java.lang.Class<? extends MyClazz>[]"
>
> It does not look like there is any way to express this when static compile is
> turned on
