Paul King created GROOVY-7672:
---------------------------------
Summary: TupleConstructor should have only SOURCE retention policy
Key: GROOVY-7672
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7672
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.4.5
Reporter: Paul King
Assignee: Paul King
We originally gave TupleConstructor RUNTIME retention policy since it might
provide a small amount of introspection information for future tools. But so
far, as far as I know, it hasn't been used. Given that it makes certain usages
impossible, I propose to put back to SOURCE retention policy. This will allow
code such as shown below to be possible:
{code}
import groovy.transform.*
import java.awt.Color
class Named {
String name
}
@ToString(includeSuperProperties=true, ignoreNulls=true, includeNames=true,
includeFields=true)
@TupleConstructor(force=true, defaults=false)
@TupleConstructor(force=true, defaults=false, includeFields=true)
@TupleConstructor(force=true, defaults=false, includeSuperProperties=true)
class Cat extends Named {
int age
private Color color
}
assert new Cat("Felix", 3).toString() == 'Cat(age:3, name:Felix)'
assert new Cat(3, Color.BLACK).toString() == 'Cat(age:3,
color:java.awt.Color[r=0,g=0,b=0])'
assert new Cat(3).toString() == 'Cat(age:3)'
{code}
