Description

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 113

The following doesn't work, but I can't work out why. The delegate is not null, but
seems to be in the generated methods. 


import spock.lang.*

class SharedDelegateSpec extends Specification {

  @Shared @Delegate List things = []

  def t() {
    expect:
    things != null
    when:
    add(1)
    then:
    get(0) == 1
  }

}

Research direction

Start with the SharedDelegateSpec reproducer in the issue and inspect how Spock handles the interaction between @Shared and @Delegate. The issue is done when the delegate-backed add(1) and get(0) calls work for the shared List without the delegate being null.
