I20110425-1800.

The original case reported in bug 337962, when split in 2 separate CU's (one for Super and one for Subclass), and the JavaCore.COMPILER_PB_UNAVOIDABLE_GENERIC_TYPE_PROBLEMS turned on, suppresses the second valid warning on fSubList. This should not be suppressed. Having both classes in same CU gives the correct behaviour

package problems;
import java.util.List;
public class Super {
    protected List fList;
}

package problems;
import java.util.List;
public class Subclass extends Super {
    protected List fSubList;

    void foo(String s) {
        fList.add(s); // type safety warning hidden(good)
        fSubList.add(s); // type safety warning hidden(bad, should not be hidden)
    }
}
