# ADR-0003 - Avoid introducing Groovy types to public API

## Date

2024-01-12

## Context

Gradle's public API requires equal access from all JVM-based languages.
Kotlin, Groovy, Java, and other JVM-based languages should be able to use the Gradle API without relying on another language's standard library.

Historically, Gradle has shipped with some Groovy types in very prominent APIs.

      return this;
    }

    @Override
    public HashCode hash() {
      return hashBytes(stream.byteArray(), 0, stream.length());
    }
  }

  // Just to access the byte[] without introducing an unnecessary copy
  private static final class ExposedByteArrayOutputStream extends ByteArrayOutputStream {
    ExposedByteArrayOutputStream(int expectedInputSize) {
      super(expectedInputSize);
    }

and it must not allow a single write to write multiple values.
</p>

<p>
All the following examples assume that `*p` and `*q` refer to
memory locations accessible to multiple goroutines.
</p>

<p>
Not introducing data races into race-free programs means not moving
writes out of conditional statements in which they appear.
For example, a compiler must not invert the conditional in this program:
</p>

<pre>
*p = 1

      }
    }
  }

  /**
   * ThreadLocal holding a single-slot int array holding hash code. Unlike the JDK8 version of this
   * class, we use a suboptimal int[] representation to avoid introducing a new type that can impede
   * class-unloading when ThreadLocals are not removed.
   */
  static final ThreadLocal<int @Nullable []> threadHashCode = new ThreadLocal<>();

  /** Generator of new random hash codes */

introduce a Go variable that points at the C variable (the linker can
be told to initialize this pointer).  For example, if the gmp library
provided

	mpz_t zero;

then cgo would rewrite a reference to C.zero by introducing

	var _C_zero *C.mpz_t

and then replacing all instances of C.zero with (*_C_zero).

Cgo's most interesting translation is for functions.  If xxx is a C
