Description

I am learning MOP in groovy. I am using Groovy 1.7.1.
As per the Programming Groovy book,when we work with nested categories, the inner categories takes precedence over the outer.
But when i try the below code , it is the reverse .is this correct?
groovy> class one {
groovy> def static toString(String self)

{ groovy> println "one" groovy> }


groovy> }
groovy> class two {
groovy> def static toSring(String self)

{ groovy> println "two" groovy> }


groovy> }
groovy> use(one){use(two) {"hello".toString()}}
one

I have also opened a thread at http://groups.google.co.in/group/groovy-user/browse_thread/thread/da5149edf2ce7c24#

I didn't realize on the mailing list that your typo was present from the first example itself. If in the class "two", I correct the typo and make it toString() from toSring(), it works fine.
