>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-10376
>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Eric Milles
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: varargs

> Consider the following:
> {code:groovy}
> @groovy.transform.TypeChecked
> class C {
>   def getFoo(String[] strings) {
>   }
>   void test() {
>     getFoo()
>     foo
>   }
> }
> @groovy.transform.TypeChecked
> void test(Class<?> type) {
>   type.getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance() // getDeclaredConstructor(Class...)
>   type.declaredConstructor.newInstance()
> }
> {code}
> Since "getFoo" can be called with zero arguments, does that make it a candidate for supporting property syntax?  I submit this for consideration.
> We have style checks that suggest property syntax when "getName()" is encountered.  But this case cannot be converted and so we must live with a warning or add an exclusion.
