Description Wes Isberg CLA 2004-03-07 22:07:22 EST 
cosmetic mistake in error message...

expected: can't bind type name 'unknown.Error'
  actual: can't bind type name 'unknown$Error'

(not sure why it would ever be munged with $)

public class Test {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		test();
	}
	static void test() {
		throw new Error("hello");
	}
	static aspect A {
		declare soft : unknown.Error : call(void test()); // CE
	}
}
Comment 1 Jim Hugunin CLA 2004-03-18 14:15:17 EST 
This error message is caused by first looking for a type Error in the unknown 
package and then looking for the inner type Error in the class unknown.  This 
second check uses the binary format for inner type names of unknown$Error.

I'm leaving as a bug until the cosmetic error is fixed.
