[GROOVY-9618] Property reference resolves to field, not getter when property name is single upper-case letter

• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Major
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: 2.4.19, 3.0.4, 2.5.12
• Fix Version/s: 4.0.0-alpha-1, 3.0.5

Description

Consider the following:

class A {
  private static X = 1
  static getX() { 2 }
  static class B {
  }
}
class C extends A.B {
  void test() {
    print X
  }
}
new C().test()

Execution of this script prints "1" when "2" is expected. If static property name is changed to "XY" or "x" the resolution works as expected.
