------------------------------------
Summary: Unclear "unable to resolve" message due to classloader
resolution
Key: GROOVY-8047
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8047
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Peter Gromov
Suppose that you have a.jar containing class-file for the following class
{code:title=A.java}
package xxx;
public class A {}
{code}
and b.jar containing class-file for the following class
{code:title=B.java}
package xxx;
public class B extends A {
}
{code}
If you add only b.jar to the classpath and refer to 'B' in your Groovy file:
{code:title=Gr.groovy}
import xxx.B
class Gr {
B b
}
{code}
Compilation will fail with the following error:
> unable to resolve class xxx.B
It isn't evident that you need to add a.jar to the classpath to fix the problem.
