["Paul King (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8238?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Paul King updated GROOVY-8238:
------------------------------
    Description: 
{code:java}
try {
    throw new AnyJavaException()
} catch ( AnyJavaException1 | AnyJavaException2 e ) {
    println e.message
}
{code}
 
 This works as expected. But following does not:

{code:java}
import AnyGroovyException
try {
    throw new AnyJavaException()
} catch ( AnyJavaException | AnyGroovyException e ) {
    println e.message
}
{code}

You get:
{noformat}
java.lang.ClassCastException: AnyJavaException cannot be cast to groovy.lang.GroovyObject
{noformat}


  was:
try {
  throw new AnyJavaException()
}
catch ( AnyJavaException1 | AnyJavaException2 e ) {  println e.message }

This works as expected. But following does not:

import AnyGroovyException
try {
  throw new AnyJavaException()
}
catch ( AnyJavaException | AnyGroovyException e ) {  println e.message }

You get: 
java.lang.ClassCastException: AnyJavaException cannot be cast to groovy.lang.GroovyObject
