Groovy 2.1.0 weird behaviour of switch-case-break statement with @CompileStatic -

i'm novice groovy programmer, , faced weird behaviour of switch-case-break statement static compilation (@compilestaticannotation). seems breaks ignored. bug or i've missed while reading documentation.

environment:

- groovy sdk 2.1.0 - oracle jdk build 1.7.0_13-b20 on mac os x lion 10.7.5

test case:

import groovy.transform.compilestatic @compilestatic class test { def test() { ['a', 'b', 'c'].each { string val -> switch (val) { case 'a' : println("${val} casea") break case 'b' : println("${val} caseb") break default : println("${val} default") } } } } (new test()).test()

output:

a casea caseb default b caseb b default c default

second test: comment @compilestatic

and everithing works fine:

a casea b caseb c default

this seems bug in groovy 2.1.0 (thanks posting jira, looks fixed in groovy 2.1.1)

as workaround until released, can utilize labeled blocks case statements break

switch (val) { case 'a' : a:{ println("${val} casea") break } case 'b' : b:{ println("${val} caseb") break } default : println("${val} default") }
