Greetings, I can run a simple Groovy class (TestGroovy.groovy) without explicitly compiling it as follows:
java -jar groovy-3.0.9-indy.jar TestGroovy
I have a compiled Java class file named TestJava.class
I am not using any package declarations. everything is in the current
directory.
I changed TestGroovy.groovy to call my TestJava.class file, however, this
is what I am getting:
$ java -jar groovy-3.0.9-indy.jar TestGroovy
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup
failed:
/home/blake/groovy/TestGroovy.groovy: 7: Apparent variable 'TestJava' was
found in a static scope but doesn't refer to a local variable, static field
or class. Possible causes:
You attempted to reference a variable in the binding or an instance
variable from a static context.
You misspelled a classname or statically imported field. Please check the
spelling.
You attempted to use a method 'TestJava' but left out brackets in a place
not allowed by the grammar.
@ line 7, column 3.
TestJava.javaMethod()
^
1 error
I also tried: java -cp . -jar groovy-3.0.9-indy.jar -cp . TestGroovy
With the same error.
Basically, I am trying to run a Groovy file and have it call a Java class
that I am supplying.
I am attaching the Java and Groovy files. Sure appreciate any help.

System.out.println("Hello from Java");
