Description

Given a Java class A with public method of signature:

public void doSomething ( final String[] args )

then the Groovy script:

A a = new A ( )
a.doSomething ( new String[]

{ "first" , "second" }

)

ought to compile. Instead the result is:

Caught: General error during parsing: unexpected token: ,
