[jira] [Updated] (GROOVY-8913) Parrot Parser: binary expression interpreted as cast and unary plus

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

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8913?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eric Milles updated GROOVY-8913:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Groovy 2.6 (and possibly/probably 3.0) is parsing this expression differently from 2.5:
{code:groovy}
def x = (a.b) + c()
{code}

In Groovy 2.5, this is a DeclarationExpression with a VariableExpression for the left expression and a BinaryExpression (with PLUS operator) for the right expression.  Parrot Parser is seeing the right expression as a CastExpression with a UnaryPlusExpression.
