Eric Milles resolved GROOVY-3952.
---------------------------------
    Fix Version/s:     (was: 4.x)
       Resolution: Implemented

{{DeclarationExpression}} and indeed all expression types extend from {{AnnotatedNode}} now.  Annotations on local variable declarations are represented in the AST.

> Groovy should support annotations on local variable declarations. It is syntactically legal to annotate a local variable, but the AST produced does not carry that annotation. 
> My use case with the AST builder. Either we'd like to annotate a local variable, like this: 
> {code}
> @AstSource(CompilePhase.CONVERSION)
> def source = { println "compiled on: ${new Date()}" }
> {code}
> Or annotate a property within a closure (which is a {{DeclarationExpression}}), like this: 
> {code}
> def result = new AstBuilder().build {
>            phase = CompilePhase.CONVERSION
>            @AstSource
>            source = { println "compiled on: ${new Date()}" }
>  }
> {code}
> A {{getAnnotations()}} method should probably be added to {{DeclarationExpression}} to support this.
