> I have a code like this:
> {code}
> trait MyTrait {
> 	final String myValue = "test"
> 	final Wrapper wrapper = new Wrapper(myValue)
> }
> class Wrapper {
> 	Wrapper(String value){
> 		if(value == null) {
> 			throw new Exception("Value is null!!!")	
> 		}
> 		println "OK: $value"
> 	}
> }
> class Main implements MyTrait {}
> new Main()
> {code}
> Everything works as expected with groovy 2.4.7:
> {code}
> $ sdk u groovy 2.4.7

> $ groovy bug.groovy 
> OK: test
> {code}
> but newer versions of groovy do not compile this code (2.4.8, 2.4.9, 2.4.10) or have null to value (2.4.11, 2.4.12):
