             Summary: MethodNode#getText can output incorrect modifiers
                 Key: GROOVY-10262
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-10262
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.5.14, 3.0.8, 4.0.0-alpha-3
            Reporter: Eric Milles


Consider the following:
{code:groovy}
class C {
  transient void m() {
    println 'should not compile'
  }
}
new C().m()
{code}

Groovy happily compiles and executes this code.  It should emit and error for the invalid modifier "transient" on the method declaration.  Similar code in Java produces the following error:
{code}
Illegal modifier for the method m; only public, protected, private, abstract, static, final, synchronized, native & strictfp are permitted
{code}

transient overlaps the modifier bit for varargs so this can cause difficulties in joint compilation scenarios.  Also the modifier printing code leveraged from {{MethodNode#getText}} does not consider the method context and prints "transient" for "def foo(... args) {}".
