Can someone tell me why this Grails domain class will not compile (at runtime)?
class Person {
String name
String getSomething(int i) {
}
}
I get this error when I run with grails run-app
:

If I change the method getSomething
to doSomething
then it works. Is getSomething(int i)
somehow being treated as a bean method?
Follow up: This is a Grails bug which will be fixed in 1.2.
