----------------------------------
Summary: GStringImpl: constant-value check pulls the compiler's
ClassHelper into the runtime
Key: GROOVY-12390
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-12390
Project: Groovy
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Paul King
Assignee: Paul King
Involves: checkValuesStringConstant calls
ImmutablePropertyUtils.builtinOrMarkedImmutableClass, whose class initialiser
builds ClassNodes through ClassHelper, which reflects over the JDK types. The
two checks it needs, a name set and an annotation test, belong in a runtime
utility that the AST utility delegates to.
Impact on normal usage: positive. The first GString with a non-trivial value
stops loading a few dozen compiler classes, and native-image reachability
shrinks accordingly. Behaviour is unchanged. This one is worth doing regardless
of Android.
