Description

class l {
  static <T> T getAt(T x) {return x}
}

@groovy.transform.CompileStatic
def m() {
  List<Integer> x =  l[1,2,3]
  return x
}

m()

this code fails to compile

{pre}
[Static type checking] - Cannot find matching method java.lang.Class#getAt(java.util.List). Please check if the declared type is correct and if the method exists.
@ line 7, column 22.
List<Integer> x = l[1,2,3]

1 error{pre}

The error message makes me think that l is seen as an instance of Class instead of the class l. Changing the class name l does not make a difference for me. I tested with groovy 3.0.1 and 2.4.7, same error, so unlikely to be new
