Paul King updated GROOVY-4874:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 3.0.0-alpha-1)
> Elvis assignment operator
> -------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-4874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-4874
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: syntax
> Reporter: Uri Moszkowicz
> Assignee: Daniel Sun
> Priority: Minor
>
> It would be nice to have an operator similar to the Elvis operator but for assignments.
> {code}
> a ?= b
> {code}
> as a shorthand for
> {code}
> a = b ?: a
> {code}
> I'm not a Ruby expert but from the Groovy mailing list it sounds like Ruby has an operator like this.
