Using 3.2RC2 I get error messages with:

--- File A.java ---
public interface A<T> {
  void foo(A.C c);
  class C {}
}

--- File B.java ---
public class B<T> implements A<T> {
  public void foo(A.C c) {}
}

Error: Name clash: The methode foo(A.C) of type B<T> has the same erasure as foo(A.C) of type A<T> but does not override it.

Error: The type B<T> must implement the inherited abstract method A<T>.foo(A.C).

If you don't get the error immediately, please try to comment the line "class C {}", compile (obviously with errors), and then uncomment the line again.

After "Clean all projects" and rebuild, the error messages will vanish. But you can reforce them with the comment/uncomment step.

This bug doesn't occur with 3.2RC1 !

The bug doesn't occur, if A and B are not generic.

The same problem occurs, if A is a class:

--- File A.java ---
public class A<T> {
  public void foo(A.C c);
  public static class C {}
}

--- File B.java ---
public class B<T> extends A<T> {
  public void foo(A.C c) {}
}
