--------------------------------------

             Summary: Better signature for ResourceGroovyMethods.traverse(File, Map<String, Object>, Closure) (and overloadings)
                 Key: GROOVY-9240
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9240
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: groovy-jdk
    Affects Versions: 2.5.8
            Reporter: Mauro Molinari


When you try to perform the following invocation in a statically checked/compile Groovy class you'll get a compilation error:

{code:groovy}
myFolder.traverse([
			type: FileType.FILES,
			nameFilter: ~/.*\.(?i)pdf/
		]) { println it }
{code}

The error is: 
{noformat}
Groovy:[Static type checking] - Cannot call java.io.File#traverse(java.util.Map <java.lang.String, java.lang.Object>, groovy.lang.Closure) with arguments [java.util.LinkedHashMap <java.lang.String, java.io.Serializable>, groovy.lang.Closure] 
{noformat}

I think that more flexible and static type checker-friendly signatures for the {{traverse}} methods would be:
{{ResourceGroovyMethods.traverse(File, Map<String, ?>, Closure)}}
{{ResourceGroovyMethods.traverse(File, Map<String, ?>)}}
