Umm. No. I can't think why we'd say that. Would seem there are two possibilities: 1) IBM JDK has more strict validation and we should fix our source (I'm not sure if Shawn and Janet are using Sun or IBM JDK), or 2) There's a compiler bug Google 'inconvertible types' and you'll get a number of hits for compiler bugs in this area. Your IBM JDK is nearly a year old. I'd guess there's a decent chance that upgrading would fix your problem. --kevan
