Minor Description
Using the groovysh, one can use the ".class" or ".getClass()" methods on numbers and Strings like so
>println "String".class
>go
class java.lang.String
>println 1.0.class
>go
class java.lang.BigDecimal
but not boolean's
>println true.class
groovysh script: 1: could not use 'true' at 1:9: literal connot directly follow another expression
println true.class
^
This strikes me as inconsistent especially since
>b = true
>println b.class
>go
class java.lang.Boolean
works.
