[jira] [Updated] (GROOVY-9064) STC: explicit declared variable type ignored in favor of assigned value type(s)

["Eric Milles (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9064?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eric Milles updated GROOVY-9064:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
Follow up to GROOVY-9058.  Consider the following:
{code:groovy}
List getSomeRows() { ... }
@groovy.transform.CompileStatic
void meth() {
  List<Object[]> rows = getSomeRows()
  rows.each { row ->
    def col = row[0]
  }
}
{code}

The inferred type of {{rows}} is {{List}} and not {{List<Object[]>}} even though the assignment cleared type checking.  This causes the inferred type of {{row}} to be {{Object}} instead of {{Object[]}}.

Similarly, {{List<String> list = []}} infers as {{ArrayList<String>}} instead of the explicit declared type, and {{Map<String, ?> map = [:]}} infers to {{LinkedHasMap<...>}} instead of the declared type.  In general, I think as long as the assignment is compatible, the variable should retain its explicitly declared type regardless of assignments.
