Description

I have following sample DSLScriptBase,groovy file:

abstract class DSLScriptBase extends Script {
  def login() {
    println 'login'
  }
}

and following script test.groovy:

def conf =  new org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilerConfiguration()
conf.setScriptBaseClass('DSLScriptBase')
def shell = new GroovyShell (conf)
shell.evaluate('login()')

It works if DSLScriptBase.groovy is in the same directory as test.groovy.

But if I move DSLScriptBase.groovy to another directory (for example D:/Test) and modify test.groovy adding setClasspath:

 def conf =  new org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilerConfiguration()
 def scriptDir = 'd:/Temp'
 conf.setClasspath(scriptDir)
 conf.setScriptBaseClass('DSLScriptBase')
 def shell = new GroovyShell(conf)
 shell.evaluate('login()')

I've got error: 'unable to resolve class DSLScriptBase'

It works fine in Grovy 2.1.9, but in 2.3.6 I can't figure any way to define script base classes on comp conf classpath (tried to create shell with ClassLoader, moving scriptbase into some package-subdir, precompile scriptbase - nothing works for me).
Please help
