[GROOVY-3339] Calling a method that takes a closure containing a list or number (and maybe others) constant throws a weird exception

• Type: Bug

Description

This script:

for(myVal in evaluate('[10,11,12]', 2, 'foo') { [10,11,12] }) { 
 println myVal
}

def evaluate(text, num, thing, closure) {
   closure.call()
}

Produces:

Exception thrown: $const$1

java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: $const$1
       at ConsoleScript1$_run_closure1.doCall(ConsoleScript1:1)
       at ConsoleScript1$_run_closure1.doCall(ConsoleScript1)
       at ConsoleScript1.evaluate(ConsoleScript1:6)
       at ConsoleScript1$evaluate.callCurrent(Unknown Source)

Whilst this one that has a String inside the closure works fine:

for(myVal in evaluate('[10,11,12]', 2, 'foo') { "one" }) { 
 println myVal
}

def evaluate(text, num, thing, closure) {
   closure.call()
}
