Its a JDK bug (should have been fixed)
http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6558580
When you have an enum as the default value for an element of an annotation,
thats where this specific bug pops up. So in our case we have a KeyType enum
and its used as a default value in the type() element of @Key. Looks like it
thinks that KeyType.FAILURE is different than KeyType
//SNIP
public @interface Key {
String value();
int count() default 1;
KeyType type() default KeyType.FAILURE;
}
public enum KeyType {
FAILURE,WARNING,ERROR
}
//SNIP
