: Package specific syntax Each annotation requires resolution, which slows the IDE. With a keyword we can get visibility of members instantly, for example for showing appropriate icon in Project View. We need to resolve _all_ annotations and check if there are annotation collectors just to find

Why is a keyword better than an annotation from an IDE developer's perspective (considering Groovy already has tons of annotations which more complex semantics than @PackageScope) ? On 13.12.2017 23:14, Daniil Ovchinnikov wrote: This is the best way from IDE perspective. — Daniil Ovchinniko

Package specific syntax

2017-12-13 Thread Nathan Harvey
In Java, methods and fields use package scope by default. In Groovy, they use public. In order to make something package scope, you have to use the @PackageScope annotation. This makes code look a bit messy but also doesn't seem very intuitive. What if the "package" keyword was able to be applied,
