question about JSNI

[benw]

The forum was putting random new postings as replies to my question..
so I'm trying again:

Hi,

I need to create my own date class to handle UTC. When I try to
construct a MyDate object,
I get a "java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: mydate"  exception in this code:

private native void init(double date) /*-{
    this.mydate = new Date(date);
  }-*/;

Anybody know why?

thanks for any help

PS.

Here's the exception:

[WARN] Malformed JSNI reference 'mydate'; expect subsequent failures
java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: mydate
