Jochen Theodorou commented on GROOVY-11861:
-------------------------------------------
In Groovy an assignment is like a cast and assignment, it may involve type
transformation, also shortening in the non-static case. But in case of a method
call shortening is not part of what Groovy does.
> method selection does not support narrowing of call args

> Key: GROOVY-11861
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11861
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Eric Milles
> Priority: Major
>
> Consider the following:
> {code:groovy}
> class C {
> short s
> }
> new C(s: 42)
> new C().s = 42
> new C().setS(42)
> {code}
> The first two writes work fine. The third throws "MissingMethodException: No
> signature of method: setS for class: C is applicable for argument types:
> (Integer) values: [42]"
