Likely the self referentials, eg: "class ProcessorDefinition<Type extends org.apache.camel.model.ProcessorDefinition>". This going to be a slog. Here is one example: {code} public abstract class OptionalIdentifiedDefinition<T extends OptionalIdentifiedDefinition> {..} public abstract class ProcessorDefinition<Type extends ProcessorDefinition> extends OptionalIdentifiedDefinition implements Block {..} {code} The above compiles fine with just javac. But when scalac see's this (when trying to compile scala) it complains that ProcessorDefinition does not provide the type argument for OptionalIdentifiedDefinition. I only found this by extracting out just the type declarations into a separate project. In that small project scalac did not crash but provided the error message. In the camel-scala project scalac just barfs. _rant begin_ I hate java generics. I hate java. After a couple years of only scala, groovy, ruby, and c# I had forgotten what an archaic, noisy language java is. _rant end_ was (Author: memelet): Ah, well looks like its more java generics foo.

Otherwise ObjectHelper failed to instantiate the > converter due to private access. (This could be 2.8 bug.

Don't know why this compiled with scala 2.7. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
