Description

This simple code does not compile with groovyc ant task, nor does it compile from within eclipse (the groovy eclipse plugin):

package groovy.test;
import groovy.mock.GroovyMock

class UsingExternalLib {
static void main(args)

{ GroovyMock mock = GroovyMock.newInstance() def mock2 = GroovyMock.newInstance() }

}

The error reported from ant is:

General error during class generation: No such class: groovy.mock.GroovyMock in cast for class: groovy.test.UsingExternalLib. At [-1:-1] /home/meling/work/runtime-EclipseApplication/Test/src/groovy/test/UsingExternalLib.groovy

The same message is also reported from the eclipse groovy plugin.

The ODD THING is that the groovyc command line compiles this code just fine.

In all cases I used jsr-02 version.

Also, if I comment the first line within main(), it does compile also with ant and eclipse. Thus, it appears that the compiler is not dealing with declaring type on the lhs...
