----------------------------------------

             Summary: "gradle run" throws groovy.lang.MissingMethodExcpeption after 2.5.1->2.5.2 groovy upgrade
                 Key: GROOVY-8752
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8752
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.5.2
         Environment: ubuntu 18.04, oracle java 1.8.0_181, groovy 2.5.2, gradle 4.9
            Reporter: Robert Kasanicky
         Attachments: 252bug.zip

Initializing a class field using a GDK method somehow became problematic in combination with gradle's application plugin. There was no such problem until the 2.5.2 groovy version (also switching gradle versions doesn't make a difference).
