Description

Follow up from GROOVY-11356. Package-private members produce different results. Consider the following:

package p

import groovy.transform.*

abstract class A {
  @PackageScope final foo = 'foo'
  @PackageScope getBar() { 'bar }
}

// not package p

class C extends p.A {
  void test() {
    print getBar() // prints "bar"
    print bar // also prints "bar"
    print foo // throws MissingPropertyException
  }
}
