Description

I found this bug when using Springcache in a Grails project. I have a service method which flushes a cache.

class MyService { 
    @CacheFlush('MyCache') 
    def update(paramA, paramB, paramC=null) { 
        ... 
    } 
}

When I call the update method with all three parameters, Springcache flushes the cache correctly. But when I call with only the first two parameters, Springcache will not flush the cache.
