Description

Consider the following:

@TypeChecked test(Map map) {
  print map.empty
  print map.class
  print map.metaClass

  map.empty = null
  map.class = null
  map.metaClass = null

  print map
}
test([:])

When executed (without @TypeChecked) the script prints "null", "null", "null", "[empty: null, class: null, metaClass: null]". So these are all map entry read and writes. However, STC indicates that "class" and "empty" are read-only properties.
