Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-11485:
--------------------------------------
When no constructor is declared for the inner class, one is generated (in
{{InnerClassCompletionVisitor}}) with code like:
{code:groovy}
Foo(Test $p$) {
super();
{
this$0 = $p$
}
}
{code}
It is the "super()" call that does not work for the superclass, which only
declares "Test(String)".
> undefined default constructor of outer class causes runtime exception

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11485
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Static Type Checker
> Reporter: Thodoris Sotiropoulos
> Priority: Minor
>
> I have the following program
> {code:java}
> class Test {
> Test(String x) {}
> class Foo extends Test {}
> public static void main(String[] args) {
> Test x = new Test("");
> Test.Foo y = x.new Foo();
> }
> } {code}
> h3. Actual behavior
> The code compiles, but there's a runtime error
> {code:java}
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: Index 0
> out of bounds for length 0
> at Test$Foo.<init>(test.groovy)
> at Test.main(test.groovy:8) {code}
> h3. Expected behavior
> The code should have been rejected.
