Description Jebastian Ponsekar CLA 2008-04-21 17:14:00 EDT 
Build ID: M20080221-1800

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create an enum
2. Try to initialize static field inside enum constructor
3.As per jdk 1.6 specification it should fail but eclipse 3.3.2 didn't complain anything but javac compiler failed to compile when I try to compile in windows command line


More information:

public enum TestEnum {
	RED, GREEN, BLUE; 
    static int test = 0;  

    TestEnum() {
    	TestEnum.test=10;
    }
}

Current behavior in Eclipse 3.3.2 - No error
Correct behavior 
TestEnum.java:8: illegal reference to static field from initializer
    	TestEnum.test=10;
Comment 1 Jebastian Ponsekar CLA 2008-04-21 17:16:33 EDT 
Jdk : jdk1.6.0_05
Eclipse : eclipse 3.3.2
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2008-04-21 17:22:14 EDT 
Reproduced with HEAD.
This used to be compiled fine with JDK1.5.0, but it now fails with JDK6.
Comment 3 Philipe Mulet CLA 2008-05-05 12:05:02 EDT 
Added EnumTest#test153-161.

Support was incorrectly only considering implict static field accesses (see bug 101713). It should reject any such reference to an enum static field member.

Comment 5 Philipe Mulet CLA 2008-05-05 12:07:09 EDT 
Javac 5 does not detect non implicit references either; but this feels a bug as per JLS (i.e. will make the fix for all compliance levels).
Comment 6 Philipe Mulet CLA 2008-05-05 15:01:25 EDT 
Released for 3.4RC1
Fixed
