Summary: Static type analysis does not consider instanceof type hint Key: NETBEANS-5983 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-5983 Project: NetBeans Issue Type: Bug Components: groovy - Editor Reporter: Svatopluk Dedic Consider code like {code:java} public BindingHolder(BindingHolder parent, Object value) { if(value instanceof List) { def instance = value[0]; // ERROR ... } } {code} whent the editor parser uses static type analysis, it will report an error on the marker line, as *vlaue* is typed as *java.lang.Object*, which has no *get()* method. In this specific case, the subtree can be evaluated speculatively, supposing that *value* is instance of *List* - requires partial evaluation of if-conditions. Similar case when typecast precedes reference to an identifier. This must be probably fixed in Groovy; in NetBeans we can block the message and try to re-evaluate the AST subtree with a speculative type(s) found on path(s) to the code. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
