EVALUATION peter.jones@East 1997-07-29 I haven't been able to reproduce this problem at first glance, but it looks like the user might be trying to compile a remote inner class, which I haven't tried yet. On Solaris, "rmic -show" seems to work fine for normal return classes. On win32, with the latest JDK 1.2 build, the error messages came out all mangled in the window, like "ev#1" where "#" was a non-printing character, so it seems like there is a different bug here... (This didn't happen with 1.1.3F or "sparkler"...) More to come with a test of a remote inner class, which seems to have a slew of problems anyway. peter.jones@East 1997-08-26 Remote inner classes should work fine with rmic now that 4069296 is fixed. This bug looks to me like a duplicate of 4073373, with the CompilerError/ mangleInnerType stuff. The target class name has a space in it.
