RedHat 8.0 / jdk 1.4.1 building org.eclipse.jdt.ui/jdt.jar M2 builds fine M3 has these 3 errors and jdt.jar is nearly empty: [javac] [loading /usr/local/eclipse-2.1M3/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.core/jdtcore.jar(org/eclipse/jdt/core/search/SearchEngine.class)] [javac] /usr/local/eclipse-2.1M3/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.ui/core refactoring/org/eclipse/jdt/internal/corext/refactoring/code/InlineConstantRefactoring.java:64: org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit has private access in org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring [javac] import org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit.ClassQualification.ClassQualificationCannotBePerformed; [javac] ^ [javac] /usr/local/eclipse-2.1M3/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.ui/core refactoring/org/eclipse/jdt/internal/corext/refactoring/code/InlineConstantRefactoring.java:64: org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit.ClassQualification has private access in org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit [javac] import org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit.ClassQualification.ClassQualificationCannotBePerformed; [javac] ^ [javac] /usr/local/eclipse-2.1M3/plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.ui/core refactoring/org/eclipse/jdt/internal/corext/refactoring/code/InlineConstantRefactoring.java:64: org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit.ClassQualification.ClassQualificationCannotBePerformed in org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit.ClassQualification is not defined in a public class or interface; cannot be accessed from outside package [javac] import org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.code.InlineConstantRefactoring.InlineTargetCompilationUnit.ClassQualification.ClassQualificationCannotBePerformed; [javac]
Any idea what can cause this problem. Since we never do source builds my ourselves I appreciate some help here.
This is a simpler test case: [package p; import p.X.Y.Z.W; public class X { private static class Y { private static class Z { public static class W { } } } }] javac 1.4.1 reports: X.java:3: p.X.Y has private access in p.X import p.X.Y.Z.W; ^ X.java:3: p.X.Y.Z has private access in p.X.Y import p.X.Y.Z.W; ^ X.java:3: p.X.Y.Z.W in p.X.Y.Z is not defined in a public class or interface; cannot be accessed from outside package import p.X.Y.Z.W; ^ 3 errors Eclipse compiler compiles that code without an error, but if you changed it for: [package p; import p.X.Y.Z; public class X { private static class Y { private static class Z { public static class W { } } } }] We do report a problem: ---------- 1. ERROR in D:\temp\X.java (at line 3) import p.X.Y.Z; ^^^^^^^ The imported type p.X.Y.Z is not visible ---------- Compiled 13 lines in 969 ms (13.4 lines/s) 1 problem (1 error) So I would say we should fail compiling the first test case. Jikes fails as well with these errors: Found 2 semantic errors compiling "D:/temp/X.java": 3. import p.X.Y.Z.W; ^-----^ *** Error: The type "p/X$Y$Z" has private access and is not accessible here. 3. import p.X.Y.Z.W; ^---^ *** Error: The type "p/X$Y" has private access and is not accessible here.
Changing the private visibility of the static members for a default visibility would fix the javac failure.

I also had entered a defect about this against JDT/UI, see bug 26865. JDT/UI code is indeed wrong, and we did not detect it in the past.
