Keegan Witt updated GROOVY-7522:
--------------------------------
Issue Type: Documentation (was: Bug)
> Document TupleConstructor overwrites empty default constructors
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-7522
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7522
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Documentation
> Reporter: Keegan Witt
>
> Document that if you have a default constructor with no content,
> {{TupleConstructor}} will overwrite the content.
> ----
> Jira was originally titled _TupleConstructor shouldn't overwrite existing
> constructors_, but was re-purposed for the reasons mentioned in the comments.
> Original content is below.
> {{@TupleConstructor}} should not overwrite existing constructors. For
> example, this should work, but doesn't currently
> {code:java}
> assert new Cat("Mr. Bigglesworth").name == null // fails
> @groovy.transform.TupleConstructor
> class Cat {
> String name
> int age
> Cat(String name) {}
> }
> {code}
> Why aren't the {{includes}}/{{excludes}} annotation elements a sufficient
> workaround? Because one might want all the other combinations
> {{@TupleConstructor}} provides, but still have their own implementation for a
> subset of the combinations.
