             Summary: asType(Collection col, Class clazz) ingnores exceptions in clazz constructor
                 Key: GROOVY-7867
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7867
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: groovy-runtime
    Affects Versions: 2.4.7, 2.4.6, 2.4.5, 2.4.4, 2.4.3, 2.4.8, 2.x, 2.5.0-beta-1

            Reporter: Павел Новиченко

Method ignores exception in clazz constructor, and if any - throws exception later, when try find constructor with args matches collection items.

public static <T> T asType(Collection col, Class<T> clazz) in DefaulktGroovyMethods.java, line 10623:
        Object[] args = {col};
        try {
            return (T) InvokerHelper.invokeConstructorOf(clazz, args);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            // ignore, the constructor that takes a Collection as an argument may not exist
        }
