[jira] [Updated] (GROOVY-9717) 3.0 stubs include packages annotations on classes other than package-info.groovy

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9717?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Keegan Witt updated GROOVY-9717:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
{code:java}
@CustomAnnotation
package com.foo

Foo {}


@interface CustomAnnotation {}
{code}
Generates a stub that has {{@com.foo.CustomAnnotationpackage}} in _Foo.java_, which javac won't compile because it requires package annotations to be in _package-info.java_.  Groovy 2.4 and 2.5 don't include this annotation in the stub.

Ideally, the annotation would be included if in _package-info.groovy_, and otherwise omitted.  But if we had to, and always omitted it, it at least wouldn't be a regression (assuming this difference wasn't made on purpose).

Possibly we should also consider having the Groovy compiler not allow annotations on packages if not in package-info.groovy, though this would have to be a Groovy 4 thing, and not only if it makes sense.

Possibly we should also consider having the Groovy compiler not allow annotations on packages if not in package-info.groovy.  I'm not clear what use cases there are for using the annotation outside a package info file.
