Package: gcj-3.0 Version: 1:3.0.4-6 Severity: normal Hi. I have the following piece of code that compiles correctly but then gives an error when run. It involves calling a default constructor for an inner class.
If gcj won't accept this default constructor, it should give a compile error. If gcj will accept this default constructor, it should run without errors. Currently it compiles cleanly but produces broken bytecode; you don't have a clue that anything's wrong until you happen to run that particular piece of code. This can be quite a problem in a large project where it becomes difficult to test the execution of every possible path through the software for compile breakages. public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { new Test().sayHi(); } public void sayHi() { new Foo().sayHi(); } private class Foo { public void sayHi() { System.out.println("Hi"); } } } [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp> javac Test.java [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp> java Test Hi [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp> gcj -C Test.java [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp> java Test Exception in thread "main" java.lang.VerifyError: (class: Test$Foo, method: <init> signature: (LTest;)V) Expecting to find object/array on stack at Test.sayHi(Test.java:10) at Test.main(Test.java:6) Thanks - Ben. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux espresso 2.4.18-686 #2 Wed Mar 20 20:21:31 EST 2002 i686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages gcj-3.0 depends on: ii gcc-3.0 1:3.0.4-6 The GNU C compiler. ii gcc-3.0-base 1:3.0.4-6 The GNU Compiler Collection (base ii java-common 0.13 Base of all Java packages ii libc6 2.2.5-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgcc1 1:3.0.4-6 GCC support library. ii libgcj2 1:3.0.4-6 Java runtime library for use with ii libgcj2-dev 1:3.0.4-6 Java development headers and stati ii zlib1g 1:1.1.4-1 compression library - runtime -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
