Eric and Paul,
Thank you both for your responses!
Paul,
Thank you for your quick turnaround on supporting array annotations!
I will create a Jira ticket when I get to my PC.

The following runs fine after adding in array support:
import java.lang.annotation.*
import org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerHelper
class ClosureTest {
static class Demo {
@Option(names = "-x",
completionCandidates = {["A", "B", "C"]},
converter = [{
The Closure to Class conversion doesn't currently support arrays. If you
change converter() to take just a single convert, your example works for
me.
Supporting arrays might be an interesting enhancement. I'll take a look at
what would be involved.
Cheers, Paul.

Is there an instance in the core language/runtime where a closure literal is
used as part of an annotation but not for an AST transformation? I'm not sure
what the compiler does when it encounters a closure expression as the value for
an annotation attribute (of type Class). But the AST transf
I’m probably overlooking something simple but I’m not seeing it yet.
The below code demonstrates the issue when trying to pass a Groovy closure
to the @Option(converter = ...)attribute:
class ClosureTest {
static class Demo {
@picocli.CommandLine.Option(names = "-x",
c

Hi all,
I have a question about passing closures to annotations in Groovy.
To illustrate, consider the @Option annotation in the picocli library.
Relevant attributes are `completionCandidates` and `converter`, defined in
Java as follows:
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Target({ElementType.FI
