---------------------------------------------

             Summary: super.sm() and super.sp fail for static members of the 
superclass (dynamic Groovy, and in a closure under SC)
                 Key: GROOVY-12519
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-12519
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Static compilation, groovy-runtime
    Affects Versions: 6.0.0
            Reporter: Scott Murphy Heiberg


A static method or static property of the superclass reached through {{super}} 
fails in dynamic Groovy:

{code:groovy}
class Base {
    static String sm() { 'sm:base' }
    static String sp = 'sp:base'
}
class Dyn extends Base {
    static String sm() { 'sm:dyn' }
    static String sp = 'sp:dyn'
    String m() { super.sm() }
    String p() { super.sp }
}
new Dyn().m() // MissingMethodException: No signature of method: sm for class: 
Base
new Dyn().p() // MissingPropertyException: No such property: sp for class: Dyn
{code}

The same happens inside a closure. javac accepts the equivalent Java and 
returns {{sm:base}} and {{sp:base}}. Under {{@CompileStatic}} both work in the 
class body and {{super.sp}} works in a closure, but {{super.sm()}} in a closure 
fails with {{IncompatibleClassChangeError: Expecting non-static method 
'java.lang.String Base.sm()'}}, because the {{super$}} helper method calls the 
static method with {{invokespecial}}.

In dynamic Groovy the super call is resolved through the {{super$}} helper 
methods of the class, which are not generated for static methods. Seen in 
4.0.33, 5.0.8 and master.

Expected: {{super.sm()}} and {{super.sp}} call the superclass's static method 
and read its static property, in every mode, in the class body and in closures 
and lambdas.
