    Description

      Bad Groovy
      def myMap = [:] as Map<String, Map<String,String>>
def foo = ''

      tells:

      Error
      1 compilation error:

expecting EOF, found 'def' at line: 2, column: 1

      but:

      Good Groovy
      def myMap = [:] as Map<String, Map<String,String> >
def bar = ''

      works fine.

      Difference lies between >> and > > (with space).

      Fix "Bad Groovy" assignment.
