Description

Can not access private static constant from colosure with @CompileStatic
Code:

@groovy.transform.CompileStatic
class A{
  private static final int BASE = 10
  
  void test() {
      def c = { 
              println BASE
      }
      
      c()
  }  
}

new A().test()

Output(Without @CompileStatic)

10

Output(With @CompileStatic)

1 compilation error:

Access to A#BASE is forbidden at line: -1, column: -1

---

But this code can work(wrap another closure)

@groovy.transform.CompileStatic
class A{
  private static final int BASE = 10
  
  void test() {
      def c = { 
          def c1 = {
              println BASE
          }
          c1()
      }
      
      c()
  }  
}

new A().test()
