Description

Hi,

I use GroovyScriptEngine to run a groovy script from java program. Inside the groovy script, I use Class.forName to load another groovy class. However, if the operating system time is behind the groovy file last modified time, following exception will be thrown:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: scripts.A.<init>(scripts.A, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
