Björn Kautler created GROOVY-11781:
--------------------------------------
Summary: static field access to outer class does not work properly
anymore
Key: GROOVY-11781
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11781
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 5.0.1
Reporter: Björn Kautler
This is a regression in Groovy 5.
Groovy 2.5, 3.0, and 4.0 it works fine.
To reproduce:
* checkout my {{groovy5}} PR branch of
[https://github.com/spockframework/spock/pull/2213]
* go to
{{org.spockframework.smoke.mock.GroovyMockAbstractGlobalClass.AbstractClassA}}
* replace the three {{GroovyMockAbstractGlobalClass.NAME}} by just {{NAME}}
* execute {{./gradlew -Dvariant=5.0 -DjavaVersion=11 :spock-specs:test --tests
org.spockframework.smoke.mock.GroovyMockAbstractGlobalClass --info}}
As a result you get an `IllegalArgumentException` with message `object is not
an instance of declaring class`.
I'm not 100% sure whether this is a Groovy bug or Spock bug, but it works fine
up to and including Groovy 4.
If this is not a Groovy bug but a Spock bug, I'd appreciate very much help in
how to resolve this on the Spock side.
