Check file size in Groovy script

Question

I use Groovy script in SoapUI to list all the files from a given directory. I use this code to filter empty files.

dir.eachFileRecurse (FileType.FILES) {
    if(file.length() > 0){file ->
        list << file
    }
}

I got following error message:

org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed: Script8.groovy: 16: expecting '}', found '->' @ line 16, column 29. if(file.length() > 0){file -> ^ org.codehaus.groovy.syntax.SyntaxException: expecting '}', found '->' @ line 16, column 29. at org.codehaus.groovy.antlr.AntlrParserPlugin.transformCSTIntoAST(AntlrParserPlugin.java:143) at org.codehaus.groovy.antlr.AntlrParserPlugin.parseCST(AntlrParserPlugin.java:111) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.SourceUnit.parse(SourceUnit.java:237) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit$1.call(CompilationUnit.java:167) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit.applyToSourceUnits(CompilationUnit.java:931) at org.codehaus.groovy.control.CompilationUnit.doPhaseOperation(CompilationUnit.java:593) at

you can't use closure in if operation

there should be usual begin-end of block :

if(file.length() > 0){
    list << file
}
