Description

Code like the following will not work correctly on Groovy 2.5.7 with @CompileStatic enabled (groovy-nio required):

Files.createTempFile('will not', 'compile').text = 'Some Text'

On Groovy 2.5.7 it compiles as

String var1 = "Some Text";
NioGroovyMethods.getText(Files.createTempFile("will not", "compile"));

whereas Groovy 2.5.6 it compiled as

String var1 = "Some Text";
ScriptBytecodeAdapter.setProperty(var1, (Class)null, Files.createTempFile("will not", "compile"), (String)"text");

The latter is working, the former is not.

Calling Path.setText should call the setter and not the getter for property text when compiling statically!

Attached is a sample project demonstrating the issue.
