This issue relates to:

~~GROOVY-2331~~ Println behavior for collections, strings and gstrings [minor breaking change]

Description

« Hide

In Groovy 1.5.0 the script:

def x = [ 'hello' ] ; println ( x )

outputs:

["hello"]

In Subversion HEAD r10022 and I assume Groovy 1.5.1, the same scripts outputs:

[hello]

I think this is an erroneous as well as breaking change.

Please see ~~GROOVY-2331~~, we just need to marry up these conflicting requests.

It appears everyone is happy that this minor breaking change goes through. The main winning argument being consistency with Java.

I have amended the Gant tests to work with the new output syntax.
