James Kleeh updated GROOVY-8260: -------------------------------- Description: There are many times I find myself having to cast variables directly inside an {{instanceof Class}} check. In addition, I have found a specific problem with a generic {{<T extends SomeClass>}} where a method in the class that returns {{T}}, Groovy believes a collection is being returned. The goal of this issue is to have the following codebase compile without changes. {{git clone -b broken_compilation https://github.com/grails/gorm-graphql}} Attempt to compile with {{./gradlew clean classes}} was: There are many times I find myself having to cast variables directly inside an `instanceof Class` check.
