Description Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-05-13 08:23:22 EDT 
Build R2.1

Once 1.4.2 target support is enabled, the compiler should encode the array 
receiver type inside the method reference instead of Object for message 
sendings like  array.clone();

see http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4329886.html
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-05-13 08:25:00 EDT 
Olivier - can you verify whether all array message sendings are modified in 
this way, or only Object protected methods (clone(), finalize()).
Comment 2 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-05-13 08:25:27 EDT 
This requires addition of target 1.4.2
Comment 3 Olivier Thomann CLA 2003-05-13 09:38:28 EDT 
Only clone() seems to be concerned by this change. finalize() doesn't compile.
Comment 4 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-05-21 07:26:05 EDT 
No need for 1.4.2 target, will have the fix enabled for 1.4 targets and 
better. -target 1.4.2 is a pure javac artifact, which doesn't exist in 
classfiles.
