Description

Problem in mapping the method call correctly to one of the statically imported methods.
The case:
In TestFunc.groovy:

package test;

public class TestFunc {

def static func(arg)

{ println arg.getClass(); }

}

and in another source (main.groovy):

import static test.TestFunc.*;

def hmap = [ text: 'Text', value: 1 ]
func hmap // this works
func ([text: 'Some text', value: 1]) // also OK
func text: 'Some text', value: 1 // but this throws exception

Output:
class java.util.LinkedHashMap
class java.util.LinkedHashMap
Caught: groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: main.func()
is applicable for argument types: (java.util.LinkedHashMap) values: [[text:Some
text, value:1]]
at main.run(main.groovy:6)
