I have a fairly large codebase that was working previously but now is failing to build with the latest groovy-eclipse.
When Eclipse tries to build the project, the following error is shown:
The error trace from the eclipse log is:

I am hoping this is enough context to investigate the problem. If not, I can try to narrow down what part of the code is causing this. I have other projects within the same workspace that do not experience this issue and build correctly. Hence I believe it's likely something to do with the specific code in one of the classes of the project.
