James Daugherty commented on GROOVY-11508:
------------------------------------------
As for the static method behavior, given this class:
{code:java}
import groovy.transform.CompileStatic
import java.util.Map
import java.util.List
trait GormEntity<Integer> {
abstract static String getEntityName()
static List<Integer> getAll() {
[3]
}
}
trait GormEntity2<Integer> {
abstract static String getEntityName()
static List<Integer> getAll() {
[2]
}
}
class Parent implements GormEntity, GormEntity2 {
String name
}
Parent p = new Parent() {code}
Groovy 3 generates this code on the parent class for the getAll() method:
{code:java}
@TraitBridge(
traitClass = GormEntity2.class,
desc = "()Ljava/util/List;"
)
public static List<Object> getAll() {
CallSite[] var0 = $getCallSiteArray();
return
(List)ScriptBytecodeAdapter.castToType(var0[2].call(GormEntity2$Trait$Helper.class,
Parent.class), List.class);
}{code}
Groovy 4 generates this code on the parent class for the getAll() method:
{code:java}
@TraitBridge(
traitClass = GormEntity2.class,
desc = "()Ljava/util/List;"
)
public static List<Object> getAll() {
return
((Class)GormEntity2$Trait$Helper.class.invoke<invokedynamic>(GormEntity2$Trait$Helper.class,
Parent.class)).cast<invokedynamic>(GormEntity2$Trait$Helper.class.invoke<invokedynamic>(GormEntity2$Trait$Helper.class,
Parent.class));
} {code}
So it seems that v3 & v4 are consistent with copying the last declared trait's
static method to the class.

> Key: GROOVY-11508
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11508
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler
> Affects Versions: 4.0.0
> Reporter: James Daugherty
> Assignee: Eric Milles
> Priority: Major
>
> When updating Grails from Groovy 3.x to 4.x we discovered that GROOVY-5106
> prevents us from updating to Groovy 4 for the
> [grails-data-mapping|https://github.com/grails/grails-data-mapping] (GORM)
> project. Groovy-5106 does not take into account relationships between
> generic types and groovy does not support inheritance in generic types on
> traits so we have no workable solution for using Groovy 4.
>
> For example, the following is not possible in Groovy 4:
> {code:java}
> class Parent extends GormEntity<Parent> {
> }
> class Child extends GormEntity<Child> {
> }
> class GormEntity<? extends GormEntity> { // ? extends GormEntity is not
> allowed
> }{code}
>
> We have documented the impacts of this issue on the grails-data-mapping
> project here: [https://github.com/grails/grails-data-mapping/issues/1811]
> We have discovered that the original change could be reverted and continue to
> work with the latest Java & Groovy.
>
> For Grails Data Mapping (GORM), there is support for inheritance between a
> Parent & Child domain object. This is often implemented like this:
> {code:java}
> class Parent extends GormEntity<Parent> {
> }
> class Child extends GormEntity<Child> {
> }
> trait GormEntity<D> { // Simplified for this ticket
> static D get(Serializable id)
>
> static List<D> getAll()
> }
> {code}
> This allows someone to do the following in code:
> {code:java}
> Parent.get(1L) // Will find either a Child or Parent
> Child.get(1L) // Will find only child types{code}
>
> Since Groovy-5106 does not take into account inheritance, can this change be
> reverted or changed to a warning until inheritance is taken into account?
