             Summary: Various problems with type inference in Groovy 2.4.6
                 Key: GROOVY-7763
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7763
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.4.6
            Reporter: Graeme Rocher
            Priority: Critical


After trying to upgrade Grails to Groovy 2.4.6 there are numerous problems with @CompileStatic and type inference with Maps and Lists. If I had seen the vote for the release in time I would have tested and voted -1, so sorry for only reporting this afterwards.

This commits shows the changes I had to make in order to get Grails to compile with Groovy 2.4.6:

You can see for example that previously returning a list initialised with variables of the correct type compiled, but no longer does:

Also empty lists and maps no longer seem to compile. See:
