Georgii Ustinov updated GROOVY-11737: ------------------------------------- Description: Good afternoon I am currently trying to support instance main methods inside IntelliJ IDEA groovy plugin as a part of Groovy 5 release, however, I can’t find any specification of how it works. I have found that the feature was implemented here - [https://github.com/apache/groovy/pull/1910/files]. Looking into the source code - [https://github.com/paulk-asert/groovy/blob/90480bfade8c20f935311055e2ceb85288870605/src/main/java/groovy/lang/GroovyShell.java#L275] I can see the following order: 1) static void main(String[] args); 2) void main(String[] args); 3) static void main(args); 4) void main(args); 5) static void main(); 6) void main(); The problem is that it doesn’t correspond to the reality. Let’s consider the following code main.groovy {code:java} void main(args) { println "1" } static void main() { println "2" } {code} If I run groovy main.groovy 1 will be printed (and it looks correct according to the semantics), But if I change example: {code:java} void main(String[] args) { println "1" } static void main() { println "2" } {code} 2 will be printed (and thus the order in the code is violated). But if I run Could you, please, provide the correct main method order resolution? was: Good afternoon I am currently trying to support instance main methods inside IntelliJ IDEA groovy plugin as a part of Groovy 5 release, however, I can’t find any specification of how it works.
