It is. It's so obvious it can easily be overlooked:
For example:
public class Foo extends Object { }
How do you get a class to compile that has a field named 'class'? I
couldn't do it. The normal convention is to use the field name 'clazz' when
you mean 'class' in Java.
One thing to check is that the type of this variable is the same when its
set(Type t) and get(){ return Type t;} methods are called, and that you
aren't mixing types with a 1.3 JVM. The 1.3 JVM is stricter about some of
the JavaBean conventions.

I would think class is a reserved word in java. For example MyClass.class
refers to the Class of the class. I would rename it from class to myClass or
something. Same for your getter/setter methods.
