Description
The Javadoc sometimes writes ObjectReference and sometimes writes objectReference as the value of the targetType field in descriptors.  The Reference Implementation in fact considers this field as case insensitive.  The test suite requires implementations to behave this way.  Plainly targetType should be added to the list of case-insensitive fields on p96 of the 1.2 spec.

Comments
PUBLIC COMMENTS Spec should say the value of the targetType field is case insensitive.

EVALUATION Could be added to the errata for 1.2, or incorporated in the next version of the spec. ###@###.### 2004-05-13
