>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Compiler
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.7
>            Reporter: Eric Milles
>            Priority: Major
>   Original Estimate: 1h
>  Remaining Estimate: 1h

> Using a class constant (static final field) in an annotation causes compile 
> errors.  This works in Java and the fix is pretty small.
> Ex:
> {code}
> class C {
>     public static final String VALUE = 'rawtypes'
>     @SuppressWarnings(VALUE)
>     def method() {
>     }
> }
> {code}
> This is a bit contrived to be concise.  But we have examples in our code 
> where Callable impls are tagged with a name, which is defined as a static 
> constant on each class.
> The fix appears to be pretty minor.  In 
> ResolveVisitor.transformInlineConstants, a case for VariableExpression does 
> the trick for me.
> {code}
>     } else if (exp instanceof VariableExpression) {
>         VariableExpression ve = (VariableExpression) exp;
>         if (ve.getAccessedVariable() instanceof FieldNode) {
>             FieldNode fn = (FieldNode) ve.getAccessedVariable();
>             if (!fn.isEnum() && fn.isStatic() && fn.isFinal() &&
>                     fn.getInitialValueExpression() instanceof 
> ConstantExpression) {
>                 return fn.getInitialValueExpression();
>             }
>         }
>         ....
> {code}
