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

             Summary: Inconsistency when accessing protected fields
                 Key: GROOVY-10917
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-10917
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Static Type Checker
            Reporter: Thodoris Sotiropoulos


I have the following program

{code}
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;


class Main {
  static public final void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    Object x = new EventObject(null).source;
    int pos = new PushbackInputStream(null).pos;
  }
}
{code}

h3. Actual behavior

{code}
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
test.groovy: 7: Access to java.io.PushbackInputStream#pos is forbidden @ line 7, column 15.
       int pos = new PushbackInputStream(null).pos
                 ^

1 error
{code}

h3. Expected behavior

Report errors for both field accesses since "pos" and "source" are protected fields.
See https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/util/EventObject.html

Tested against master (commit: 5a5726342adeb37a6fbaa8cdcbe2d47dee8dc56c)
