Description Richard Gronback CLA 2006-02-03 20:57:54 EST 
The following error is present using the latest EMF integration build (I20060202-0200):

The return type is incompatible with ECrossReferenceAdapter.getCrossReferenceAdapter(Notifier)MSLCrossReferenceAdapter.java	org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.core/src/org/eclipse/gmf/runtime/emf/core/internal/index	line 552
Comment 1 Christian Damus CLA 2006-02-04 12:14:18 EST 
Renamed the offending method to getMSLCrossReferenceAdapter.

Actually, this should not have been a compile error; looks like a bug in the JDT compiler.  Static methods cannot conflict in this way with different return types because they are not polymorphic.  The compiler generates invokeSpecial bytecodes that bind statically to the type and method, so there is never an issue of conflict.
