Paul King updated GROOVY-8778:
------------------------------
Description:
We support:
{code}
println Date[time:0]
def map = [time:0]
println Date[*:map]
map = [:]
println Date[*:map]
{code}
but not:
{code}
println Date[:]
{code}
This is a breaking change since we currently support printing an empty map
without brackets but would require them after this change:
{code}
println [:]
{code}
would need to be:
{code}
println [:]
{code}
But we require the brackets for lists (empty and non-empty) and non-empty maps
already.
