Description

I use the GroovyClassLoader and GroovyObject to load a script and invoke operations on the GroovyObject instance. For example:

final GroovyClassLoader grooveyClassLoader = new GroovyClassLoader(this.getClass().getClassLoader());
final Class groovyClass =
grooveyClassLoader.parseClass(
this.getContents(new File(this.scriptPath)),
scriptPath);
final GroovyObject groovyObject = (GroovyObject)groovyClass.newInstance();

return groovyObject.invokeMethod(
methodName,
args);

Anyway, things work fine in most cases, however if I have a method in my script like this:

public Object findByName(int transform, String name)

{ return super.findByName(transform, name); }

then I get the following verify error when trying to execute this method

10:52:45,671 INFO [STDOUT] Caused by: java.lang.VerifyError: (class: org/dcri/ctn/siteprofile/persistence/ApplicationRo
leDaoImpl, method: findByName signature: (ILjava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/Object Expecting to find integer on stack
10:52:45,671 INFO [STDOUT] at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors0(Native Method)
10:52:45,671 INFO [STDOUT] at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredConstructors(Class.java:1618)

10:52:45,671 INFO [STDOUT] at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:261)

If I remove the call to super.findByName(transform, name), things work fine. Also if I change the super call to not use a primitive like the following (even though the super method doesn't take an Integer on the actual class), things work fine:

public Object findByName(int transform, String name)

{ return super.findByName(new Integer(transform), name); }

.So it appears the invalid class file only occurs when the super method call contains a primitive. Let me know if I need to provide more information.
