Wrong error reported by @CompileStatic when overriding a method returning a parameterized value

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      Consider the following Java class:

      package l;

public class LJava <T extends Number> {
   public T doSomething() {
	   return null;
   }
}

      and the following Groovy class:

      package l
import groovy.transform.CompileStatic;

@CompileStatic
class L extends LJava<Integer> {
	Integer doSomething() {
		super.doSomething()
	}
}

      Static compilation fails because Groovy thinks that doSomething() for LJava<Integer> returns Number instead of Integer.
