Description Dirk Baeumer CLA 2003-10-08 12:09:57 EDT 
I20031007

In the following example

public class A {
	public void foo() {
		A a= new A() {};
	}
}

calling getDeclaring type on A(){...} returns an IType of format

class A [in [Working copy] A.java [in <default> [in src [in Test]]]]
  void foo()
    class <anonymous #1>

What do you find strange about this type?
Comment 2 Dirk Baeumer CLA 2003-10-09 08:32:49 EDT 
I got tricked by the line class <anonymous #1> and thought that the enclosing 
type was the type itself.

Closing as invalid.
