Initial attempt to upgrade to Groovy 5.
Benefits:
zip
(can be added to Nextflow standard library)instanceof
(can be added to Nextflow language)_
for placeholder variables (can be added to Nextflow language)Changes:
Had to remove generic type arguments from
instanceof
checks as the Groovy parser doesn't allow it anymoreHad to add
@Slf4j
to some inner classes to makelog
work in that class. not sure if this is a bug or just a breaking changeCurrent issues:
Groovy complained about a few implementers of
CacheFunnel
, even though I didn't see anything wrong. Converting CacheFunnel to Java fixed the issue for one but not the otherMultiple issues with the type checker that I'm pretty sure are just Groovy bugs, particularly
CmdLog
andDumpOp
The type checker does not recognize
target
inTaskConfig
as a Map, seems like a bug. I wonder if it's an edge case sincetarget
is defined in super class as private and a DelegateOverall it looks like Groovy 5 beta still has a few compiler bugs to sort out. But I'm excited to get it working so that I can bring the new pattern matching features into the Nextflow language.
