FYI, I found the issue, it has nothing to do with the getter's name...
Sorry for the confusion.

The failure was delayed after executing the code causing the issue:

// Groovy4 seems happy with the following line, but not groovy 5 (Class
Cast Exception from String to MethodNode)
//
sceGetDeclaredField.setNodeMetaData(StaticTypesMarker.DIRECT_METHOD_CALL_TA=
RGET,
"getDeclaredField");
// Groovy 5 OK version

sceGetDeclaredField.setNodeMetaData(StaticTypesMarker.DIRECT_METHOD_CALL_TA=
RGET,

 findDeclaredMethod(classNode, "getDeclaredField", 1));
The 2nd arg of setNodeMetaData is "Object" so both versions compile OK ..

I just tested with this code:<br>

}<br>
<br>
