Description

Create and compile java interface containing static method using JDK8

public interface JavaInterface
{
  static int doSmth()
  {
    return 42;
  }
}

 javac JavaInterface.java

 

Open groovyConsole (2.5.4), add folder where JavaInterface.class is located to classpath, check 'Enable indy compilation' and paste following script

 

import groovy.transform.CompileStatic
import static JavaInterface.doSmth

@CompileStatic
void doCall()
{
  println doSmth()
}

 

 

Compile and Run the script in groovyConsole. The result is JVM verification failure:

java.lang.VerifyError: Illegal type at constant pool entry 51 in class Caller
Exception Details:
Location:
Caller.doCall()V @4: invokestatic
Reason:
Constant pool index 51 is invalid

Best Regards
