Paul King closed GROOVY-4721.
-----------------------------
> variable declared in try block is in scope in finally block
> -----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-4721
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-4721
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0-rc-1
> Reporter: Hamlet D'Arcy
> Assignee: Daniel Sun
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.0.0-beta-1
>
>
> This code should fail because 'x' is out of scope in the finally block.
> {code}
> class MyClass {
> def myMethod() {
> try {
> def x = 'foo'
> println x
> }
> finally {
> println x
> }
> }
> }
> new MyClass().myMethod()
> {code}
> Instead it prints 'foo' twice.
> if myMethod is static then it shows the behavior I expect.
> Could be something wrong with VariableScope somewhere?
> This example is from the Groovy codebase. We have code that relies on this
> behavior (although it is easy to find and fix, just run the UnusedVariable
> codenarc inspection, which is how I found it)
