Cannot declare multiple variables in single line inside setup block

[jordi-chacon]

Hi,

I can't seem to define, without initializing, multiple variables in one line inside a when or a setup block.

Example:

import spock.lang.Specification

class exampleSpec extends Specification {

  def "foo"() {
    when:
    def a, b
    a = 0
    b = 1

    then:
    a != b
  }
}

This fails when accessing b:
No such property: b for class: ....

Moving the declaration outside the block works.

I am using:

Groovy Version: 2.4.3 JVM: 1.8.0_45 Vendor: Oracle Corporation OS: Linux

This is a real issue, and doesnt work for me either.

Guyz please fix it, spock shoulnt be breaking groovy syntax.

I've found that inserting a single variable declaration immediately after the setup: or when: labels will get around this issue. In other words, the error seems to manifest when non-initialized multiple variable declarations immediately follow the setup: or when: blocks.

This works as expected:

def "foo"() {
  when:
  def aSingleVar         // when this is present, the next line is allowed
  def a, b
  a = 0
  b = 1

  then:
  a != b
}
