Description

In 2.3.8 this works:

private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(LumenPersistenceImportApp)

@Override
void run(String... args) throws Exception {
    new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(file), StandardCharsets.UTF_8))
            .withReader { Reader buf ->
        new CSVReader(buf, '\t' as char, '"' as char, '\\' as char).with { csv ->
            log.debug('{} -[:{}]-> {}    # {}', subjectUri, relName, objectUri, factId)
...

In 2.4.0 this throws runtime exception:

Caused by: org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.metaclass.MissingPropertyExceptionNoStack: No such property: log for class: au.com.bytecode.opencsv.CSVReader

It seems Groovy is now looking for the wrong "log" although it's available as a private static final field.

Workaround: Change private to protected
