--------------------------------------
[~blackdrag] Do you have any recollection of the types of situations this
check is meant to protect from? I see the various checks, but no scenarios
that don't work as expected or anything like that.
> 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
> Assignee: Eric Milles
> Priority: Minor
>
> 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.
