Name: rmT116609 Date: 02/05/2004 FULL PRODUCT VERSION : C:\>java -version java version "1.5.0-beta" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c, mixed mode) ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION : Microsoft Windows 2000 [Version 5.00.2195] A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : When trying to carry out a static import on a class which is in the default package, the compiler fails with an error message. This does not seem to happen if the class is in a named package, so importing the members of java.lang.Math (for instance) works fine, but if I were to implement my own class Test (rather than x.y.Test) the import fails. STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM : Try to build and compile the files provided. EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR : EXPECTED - I expected the method example1() to be imported. The JSR201 description specifies that the syntax should be: import static TypeName . Identifier ; A legitimate type name has been provided. ACTUAL - Fails with a compiler error - cannot find symbol. If I move the Example1 class into a non-default package (such that it becomes, for example, test.Example1) then the static import works fine. ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR : C:\>javac -version -cp c:\ -source 1.5 Example2.java javac 1.5.0-beta Example2.java:1: cannot find symbol symbol: class Example1 import static Example1.*; ^ Example2.java:5: cannot find symbol symbol : method example1() location: class Example2 example1(); ^ 2 errors REPRODUCIBILITY : This bug can be reproduced always. ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ---------- // File Example1.java - builds ok public class Example1 { public static void example1() { System.out.println("Example1"); } } // File Example2.java - fails on line 1. import static Example1.*; public class Example2 { public static void main(String... args) { example1(); } } ---------- END SOURCE ---------- CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND : Move the class to be imported into a different package.
