The error message I get is X.OLD_FIELD cannot be resolved to a variable, instead of OLD_FIELD cannot be resolved, as reported here. In view of this error message, I believe that the error range is consistent. Srikanth, what do you think? Does the error range need any change here?

This seems to be have been the behavior at least since 3.3.2. I agree that current message and range are appropriate. This defect could be closed with no change. Verified for 3.6M6. Reopening, given we just fixed bug 303830: we should align this one with it and it will also help us fix bug 182319. Created attachment 162094 [details]
Proposed fix + updated regression tests
Ayushman, please review. (In reply to comment #5) > Created an attachment (id=162094) [details] > Proposed fix + updated regression tests Patch looks good to me. (In reply to comment #7) > Patch looks good to me. Yup, I agree with Frederic. Released for 3.6M7. Updated existing regression tests. Verified in HEAD. *** Bug 182319 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
20070415 In the following code: p/X.java ----------------- package p; public class X { static int NEW_FIELD; } q/Y.java ----------------- package q; import p.X; public class Y { void foo() { int i = X.OLD_FIELD; } void bar() { int j = X.OLD_FIELD; } } 'OLD_FIELD' can not be resolved. The error range is 'X.OLD_FIELD', but should be only 'OLD_FIELD'. If you change to public class Y { void foo() { int i = X.OLD_FIELD(); } void bar() { int j = X.OLD_FIELD(); } } then the error range is only 'OLD_FIELD()'
