Groovy static compilation fails for nested generic

2019-07-23 15:59发布

Please check the sample JUnit class below:

import groovy.transform.CompileStatic
import org.apache.commons.lang3.tuple.Pair
import org.junit.Test
import java.util.function.Function

@CompileStatic
class GroovyFunctionTypeInferenceTest {
  @Test
  void functionWithoutPairTest() {
    // some function that operates on list and returns an element of this list
    Function<List<String>, String> function =
        { List<Pair<String, Integer>> it -> it[0] } as Function
    def list = new ArrayList<String>()
    function.apply(list)
  }

  @Test
  void functionWithPair1Test() {
    // some function that operates on list and returns an element of this list
    Function<List<Pair>, Pair> function =
        { List<Pair<String, Integer>> it -> it[0] } as Function
    def list = new ArrayList<Pair>()
    function.apply(list)
  }

  @Test
  void functionWithPair2Test() {
    // some function that operates on list and returns an element of this list
    Function<List<Pair<String, Integer>>, Pair<String, Integer>> function =
        { List<Pair<String, Integer>> it -> it[0] } as Function
    def list = new ArrayList<Pair<String,Integer>>()
    function.apply(list)
  }
}

Functions functionWithoutPairTest and functionWithPair1Test compile successfully, but functionWithPair2Test fails with the following errors:

Error:(36, -1) Groovy-Eclipse: Groovy:[Static type checking] - Incompatible generic argument types. Cannot assign java.util.function.Function <java.util.List, org.apache.commons.lang3.tuple.Pair> to: java.util.function.Function <List, Pair>
Error:(38, -1) Groovy-Eclipse: Groovy:[Static type checking] - Cannot call java.util.function.Function <java.util.List, org.apache.commons.lang3.tuple.Pair>#apply(java.util.List <Pair>) with arguments [java.util.ArrayList <Pair>]

It looks like groovy does not like nested generics. Dynamic compilation is not an option in my case and strict type checking is a hard requirement.

Does anyone encounter similar error and has an advice?
