> I have problem with following code:
> {code}
> double a;
> def b = {
>    a = a + 1;
> }
> b();
> {code}
> I tried to compile it with groovy 1.8.6 and it worked 
> variable 'a' was instantiated with value 0.0
> but after upgrade to groovy 2.2.1
> it throws NullPointerException because variable 'a' is instantiated to null
> I tried to decompile class files and declaration of 'a' looked like this:
> version 1.8.6
> {noformat}
> CallSite[] var1 = $getCallSiteArray();
>         final Reference a = new Reference((Double)DefaultTypeTransformation.box(0.0D));
>         DefaultTypeTransformation.doubleUnbox(a.get());
> ...
> {noformat}
> version 2.2.1
> {noformat}
> CallSite[] var1 = $getCallSiteArray();
> final Reference a = new Reference((Object)null);
> Double var10000 = (Double)a.get();
> ...
> {noformat}
> I tried it also with version 2.4.0 but it has same result as 2.2.1
> In attachment are groovy classes, compiled classes and consoleOutputs for versions 1.8.6 and 2.2.1
