-----------------------------------
I agree with your assessment.
> Groovy class does not compile if the ValueType of an annotation is not on the
> classpath

> Key: GROOVY-8669
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8669
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: class generator
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0
> Reporter: Andreas Turban
> Priority: Major
> Labels: annotations, compile-error
> Attachments: AnnoTest.zip
>
>
> If a groovy class (Test.groovy) references a class (AnnotatedClass) which has
> an annotation (Annotation) with a value class (ValueClass), which is not on
> the classpath an NoClassDefFoundError is thrown.
> This does happen during Compilation. This did not happen in Groovy 2.4.15.
> The stacktrace is:
> {noformat}
> Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: annos.ValueClass
> at
> org.codehaus.groovy.ast.decompiled.AsmReferenceResolver.resolveClass(AsmReferenceResolver.java:48)
> at
> org.codehaus.groovy.ast.decompiled.AsmReferenceResolver.resolveNonArrayType(AsmReferenceResolver.java:81)
> at
> org.codehaus.groovy.ast.decompiled.AsmReferenceResolver.resolveType(AsmReferenceResolver.java:72)
> at
> org.codehaus.groovy.ast.decompiled.Annotations.annotationValueToExpression(Annotations.java:58)
> at
> org.codehaus.groovy.ast.decompiled.Annotations.createAnnotationNode(Annotations.java:51)
> ...
> {noformat}
> I think the class org.codehaus.groovy.ast.decompiled.Annotations should also
> ignore annotation nodes, if the values type is not resolvable. Like it is
> done if the annotation type itself is not resolvable, see line 43-46.
> I have attached a simple sample to reproduce the issue.
> 1. Compile it with gradle build
> 2. Open the jar file annos/build/libs/annos.jar
> 3. Delete the classfile annos/ValueClass.class
> 4. Compile it with gradle :client:build
> Now the exception is thrown.
