Octavia Togami created GROOVY-11633:
---------------------------------------
Summary: final fields no longer produce final getters
Key: GROOVY-11633
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11633
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Compiler
Affects Versions: 4.0.26, 4.0.25, 4.0.24
Reporter: Octavia Togami
Attachments: FinalProp.groovy
In Groovy 3 and versions of Groovy 4 at or before 4.0.23, a `final` field would
also produce a `final` getter. Due to changes made in
https://github.com/apache/groovy/commit/88c6336021f71d702da5292aeaac9e9859aeab1a
(discovered via `git bisect`), 4.0.24 and onwards now produce a non-`final`
getter, which allows overriding of the method. A reproducer which should fail
to compile if the issue is fixed is attached.
This has a minor affect on Gradle's upgrade to Groovy 4, where some properties
won't properly attach to their owning object and produce worse error messages.
