The following code, throws FileNotFoundException:

@CompileStatic
class Sample {
    static void main(String[] args) {
        new File("/tmp/sample.txt").text = "something"
    }
}

The cause is reported to be related to InputStream, however, in this case, it should be OutputStream.

The following throws no error:

new File("/tmp/sample.txt").setText("something")

If I use Groovy 2.5.6 or bellow (or without @CompileStatic), it works as expected.

GROOVY-9123 "java.nio.file.Path.setText" does not work with CompileStatic on Groovy 2.5.7
