The following code compile OK with 
 - Eclipse 3.2.2 build M20070212-1330, 
 - Sun javac 1.5.0_05-b05
 - Sun javac 1.6.0-b105
But do not compile with AJC 1.5.3

/** 
 * {@inheritDoc}
 */
@Override
public void setAsText(String text) throws IllegalArgumentException {
    value = Enum.valueOf(value.getClass(), text);
}
Actual behaviour:
Error from AJC compiler : 
"Bound mismatch: The generic method valueOf(Class<T>, String) of type Enum<E> is not applicable for the arguments (Class<capture-of ? extends Enum<E>>, String). The inferred type capture-of ? extends Enum<E> is not a valid substitute for the bounded parameter <T extends Enum<T>>"

Expected behaviour : 
Compilation OK with 1 warning, like with Sun & Eclipse compilers.

Workaround:
/** 
 * {@inheritDoc}
 */
@Override
public void setAsText(String text) throws IllegalArgumentException {
    Class enumClass = value.getClass();
    value = Enum.valueOf(enumClass, text);
}
