[jira] [Created] (GROOVY-7611) java.util.Optional should evaluate to false if empty

Christopher Smith created GROOVY-7611:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: java.util.Optional should evaluate to false if empty
                 Key: GROOVY-7611
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7611
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.4.5
            Reporter: Christopher Smith
            Priority: Minor


In the spirit of the rest of the Groovy truth semantics, I suggest that an empty {{java.util.Optional}}, which is essentially a stream-safe equivalent of {{null}}, should evaluate to false: {{asBoolean()}} should simply delegate to {{isPresent()}}.
