Scott Murphy Heiberg updated GROOVY-12607:
------------------------------------------
    Description: 
{code:groovy}
import java.util.function.Supplier
@groovy.transform.CompileStatic
class C {
    int intMethod() { 1 }
    Supplier<String> f() { this.&intMethod }
    String take(Supplier<String> s) { s.get() }
    def g() { take(this::intMethod) }
    def h() { Supplier<String> s = this::intMethod; s.get().toUpperCase() }
}
new C().h()
{code}
Actual: the class compiles. At run time the supplier returns an Integer, so the 
script fails with {{ClassCastException: class java.lang.Integer cannot be cast 
to class java.lang.String}} (under @TypeChecked: MissingMethodException for 
toUpperCase on Integer). The same happens for a Boolean supplier from a 
String-returning method and a Long supplier from an int-returning method, with 
.& or ::, returned, passed or assigned. A method pointer (.&) that is returned 
or assigned is not checked at all, so even a method returning an Integer 
supplier as this.&stringMethod compiles.

Expected: a compile error such as "Invalid return type: int is not convertible 
to java.lang.String", as for the equivalent lambda.

Cause: the return-type check for method pointers and references uses assignment 
compatibility, which allows conversions (to String, Boolean, wider number 
wrappers) that a method pointer or reference never performs. A method pointer 
gets no target type when it is returned or assigned.

Seen in 4.0.33, 5.0.8 and 6.0.0.
