2.5.x does not use the new Parrot parser afaik, the upcoming 3.x and its now
dormant 2.6.x JDK 7 backport do.
(apart from that: Agree, never used that syntax in any language, never missed
it in Groovy due to functional constructs)

…although I’ve never run into this before. Too many groovier ways to do loops
in groovy.

Subject: multi-declaration does not work in the for loop, groovy 2.4
Hi there,
I have just bumped into a — presumably — parser error, which causes that a
declaration of more variables is not accepted in a for loop:

/tmp> /usr/local/groovy-2.4.15/bin/groovy q
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
/private/tmp/q.groovy: 1: unexpected token: = @ line 1, column 13.
for (int foo=0,bar=0;foo<bar;foo++)

Groovy Version: 2.4.15 JVM: 10.0.1 Vendor: "Oracle Corporation" OS: Mac OS X

At the moment alas I can't test in newer groovys, not sure whether the problem
is fixed there or not.
All the best,
OC
