[jira] [Created] (GROOVY-10695) StackOverflowError when calling a static method.

Andres Luuk created GROOVY-10695:
------------------------------------

             Summary: StackOverflowError when calling a static method.
                 Key: GROOVY-10695
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-10695
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0.11
            Reporter: Andres Luuk


I tryed it on all 3.x versions (didn't try 2.x). Found it from Grails code but extracted it as an example

 
{code:java}
package test;
public class Environment {
    public static Throwable currentReloadError = null
    static void setCurrentReloadError(Throwable currentReloadError) {
        Environment.currentReloadError = currentReloadError
    }
    static Throwable getCurrentReloadError() {
        return currentReloadError
    }
}
{code}
Now when I call the setter:

 
{code:java}
Environment.setCurrentReloadError(null);{code}
 

I get a StackOverflowError.

I decompiled the class and the code is compiled into:  
{code:java}
public static void setCurrentReloadError(Throwable currentReloadError) {
  Throwable throwable = currentReloadError;
  ScriptBytecodeAdapter.setProperty(throwable, null, Environment.class, "currentReloadError");
}{code}
 

The cause seems to be that it finds the same setter and this causes the circularity.

If I remove the (Environment.) from the original code then it works.

The cause s
