Description

I added another test to the bug class below that attempts to update a static variable from with a closure in a static method. The result of the new test is this Error:

java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: owner
at UseStaticInClosureBug$2.doCall(C:\dev\cvsviews\groovy\groovy-core\target\test-classes\groovy\bugs\UseStaticInClosureBug.groovy)

class UseStaticInClosureBug extends GroovyTestCase {

static stuff = [:]

void testBug() {
[1,2,3].each

{ stuff[it] = "dog" }

assert stuff.size() == 3
assert stuff[2] == "dog"
}

void testBug2() { doStatic() }

static doStatic() {
[1,2,3].each { stuff[it] = "dog" }

assert stuff.size() == 3
assert stuff[2] == "dog"
}
}
