Description

This code:

class Foo {
    static testStatic(version) {
        staticTrimTag(version)
    }
    private static staticTrimTag(pluginVersion) {
        def i = pluginVersion.indexOf('-')
        if(i>-1)
            pluginVersion = pluginVersion[0,i-1]
        pluginVersion
    }

    
}

version = "1.0-SNAPSHOT"
pluginVersion = version
i = version.indexOf('-')

println "1.0-SNAPSHOT"[0..i-1]
println Foo.testStatic("1.0-SNAPSHOT")

Prints

1.0
10
