Eric Milles updated GROOVY-11749:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
When working on getting the Matrix project to work with Groovy 5 I encountered 
the following differences compared to 4.0.28 for static compilation:

f is a csv commons formatter. The setHeader method has the following signature:
{code:java}
f.setHeader(String... headers)
{code}
In 4.0.28 i used to be able to just cast a List<String> to a String[] like this:
{code:groovy}
if (val instanceof List) {
  f.setHeader(val as String[])
{code}
But in Groovy 5 this gives me the following error:
{code}
java.lang.ClassCastException: class java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to class 
[Ljava.lang.String; (java.util.ArrayList and [Ljava.lang.String; are in module 
java.base of loader 'bootstrap')
{code}
A workaround is to use the Java way i.e:
{code:groovy}
if (val instanceof List) {
  f.setHeader(val.toArray(new String[0]) as String[])
{code}

Another thing i hade to change was
{code:groovy}
static String asColumnName(int number) {
  StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder()
  while (number-- > 0) {
    sb.append(('A' as char + (number % 26)) as char)
    *number /= 26*
  }
  return sb.reverse().toString()
}
{code}
Which no longer compiles:
{code}
.../SpreadsheetUtil.groovy: 45: [Static type checking] - Cannot assign value of 
type java.math.BigDecimal to variable of type int
{code}
but had to be changed to 
{code:groovy}
static String asColumnName(int number) {
  StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder()
  while (number-- > 0) {
    sb.append(('A' as char + (number % 26)) as char)
    *number = (int) (number / 26)*
  }
  return sb.reverse().toString()
}
{code}
