Description

This bug was introduced in 4.0.13.

I have two classes:

package bug.repro

class Constants {
  @PackageScope static final String CONSTANT = 'foo'
}

package bug.repro

import static bug.repro.Constants.CONSTANT

@groovy.transform.CompileStatic
class UsesConstants {
  void run() {
    println CONSTANT.isEmpty()
  }
}

As of 4.0.12, this compiles as expected (would print false). As of 4.0.13, it produces

[Static type checking] - Cannot find matching method bug.repro.constants#getCONSTANT(). Please check if the declared type is correct and if the method exists.
