Saravanan commented on GROOVY-11614:
------------------------------------

Hi Paul, I am still seeing this error on 5.0.0.beta.1

Not sure if this is specific to some condition
{code:java}
public class RecordTesting {
    public enum Thing{
        ME,
        YOU
    };

    public String create(Thing a) {

        switch (a) {
            case ME: return "STR"; break;
            case YOU: return "YOU"; break;
        }

        return ""
    }
}{code}
 

Causes a compile error (I am using @CompileStatic)
{code:java}
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
testdata/plugins/records/RecordTesting.java: -1: Access to com.Records.RecordTesting#ME is forbidden @ line -1, column -1.
testdata/plugins/records/RecordTesting.java: -1: Access to com.Records.RecordTesting#YOU is forbidden @ line -1, column -1.

>    Affects Versions: 4.0.24, 5.0.0-alpha-12

>            Assignee: Paul King

> This is a difference in Java vs Groovy behaviour. Enums must be fully qualified in Groovy while Java requires them to not be fully qualified.
> -This was supposedly fixed, but does not seem to work in 4.0.24. Not sure where it broke.-
> Example:
> {code:groovy}
> void test(Thread.State ts) {
>   switch (ts) {
>     case Thread.State.NEW: // cannot remove "Thread.State." without @CompileStatic
>       break
>   }
> }
> {code}
