Saravanan created GROOVY-11627: ---------------------------------- Summary: Compile Error when private and public functions use same name in compile static mode Key: GROOVY-11627 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11627 Project: Groovy Issue Type: Bug Components: Compiler, Static compilation Affects Versions: 5.0.0-alpha-12 Reporter: Saravanan
When I define a class in Groovy with 2 methods with the same name, one private and one public, I get this error during static compilation {quote}Mixing private and public/protected methods of the same name causes multimethods to be disabled and is forbidden to avoid surprising behaviour. Renaming the private methods will solve the problem. {quote} I understand the need for multi methods and dispatching with runtime types, but how can I disable this behaviour? I am using @CompileStatic and it still hits this error Per Jochen {quote}CompileStatic does not support multi methods, so I totally agree that this message should not appear for static compiled classes. {quote} -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
