[jira] [Commented] (GROOVY-9712) groovyc fails when compiling class starting with unicode character

["Eric Milles (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9712?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17192381#comment-17192381 ] 

Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-9712:
-------------------------------------

This appears to be limited to return type for method.  I was able to compile a unit and class with non-ascii name, same for field and property.  Adding a method results in parser error for antlr4 parser (but not antlr2).

>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Compiler
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.5
>         Environment: Windows 10 version 1809
> Groovy 3.0.5
>            Reporter: Ted Lundqvist

> Compiling the code below with groovyc results in the following error message:
> org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
>  Ö_ClassWithUlmaut.groovy: 2: Unexpected input: '(' @ line 2, column 41.
>  Ö_ClassWithUlmaut getInstance(){
>  ^
> 1 error
>  
> The file is encoded in Windows-1252 and I'm compiling it with the following command:
>  \Tools\groovy-3.0.5\bin\groovyc --encoding Windows-1252 Ö_ClassWithUlmaut.groovy
> Compiling with version 2.5.8 works fine
>  
> The problem only seem to occur when the class name starts with a unicode character i.e. the problem doesn't occur if the class name has an unicode in it as long as it isn't the first character
> Example:
> {code:java}
> class Ö_ClassWithUlmaut {
>     static Ö_ClassWithUlmaut getInstance(){
>     }
> }
> {code}
