Paul King commented on GROOVY-8412: ----------------------------------- I remove the code which previously treated instanceof and !instanceof the same. But we haven't put in any support for the negated case as yet. > Support !instanceof flow typing for else case > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: GROOVY-8412 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8412 > Project: Groovy > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Eric Milles > Priority: Minor > > {{maybeFile instanceof File ? maybeFile.canonicalPath : > maybeFile.toString()}} sees maybeFile as type {{File}} in the true > expression. However, {{!(maybeFile instanceof File) ? maybeFile.toString() : > maybeFile.canonicalPath}} does not offer the same support for the else > expression. The same applies if either were written long-form with if/else. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
