Description Jan Becicka 2000-12-04 10:14:39 UTC

[release 3.1-20] [1160]
Steps to reproduce:
Overriding method foo(java.lang.Class) will create method (java.lang.Class
class)
But "class" is not valid identifier.

Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2000-12-05 09:36:59 UTC

[dev-82, release31-22] if the synthesized parameter name clashes with a keyword,
the name is suffixed with (localizable) string to distinguish it. Class type
parameters are handled specially (with names "clazz", "clazz2" etc).

Comment 2 Jan Becicka 2000-12-11 15:04:59 UTC

BUG also appears in version : FFJ20

Comment 3 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 13:15:32 UTC

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
