[jira] [Commented] (GROOVY-9612) Should parse parenthesis and bracket after newline correctly

["Daniel Sun (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9612?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17149094#comment-17149094 ] 

Daniel Sun commented on GROOVY-9612:
------------------------------------

Groovy does not support such a syntax since 2.4. If we support it, more ambiguities will be introduced because parenthesis expressions can exist standalone.
{code:java}
println GroovySystem.version

println
(
    123
)
{code}

> For example, this should compile correctly. Current groovy parser forces coding style format which is not the one we choose when we code Java. 
> {code:java}
> import java.io.*;
> import groovy.io.*;
> def dir = new File("C:\\");
> dir.eachFileRecurse
> (    
>     f
>     ->
>     println(f.name)
> );
> {code}
> groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: eachFileRecurse for class: java.io.File
