Hi,

I upgraded to Eclipse 3.1 M6 the other day and a whole bunch of errors came out 
of it where we use Collections.sort. The error and a small class that 
reproduces this error is provided.

Bound mismatch: The generic method sort(List<T>) of type Collections is not 
applicable for the arguments (List<CollectionSort.InnerClass>) since the type 
CollectionSort.InnerClass is not a valid substitute for the bounded parameter 
<T extends Comparable<? super T>>

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.List;

public class CollectionSort {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		List<InnerClass> list = new ArrayList<InnerClass>();
		Collections.sort(list);
	}
	
	static class InnerClass implements Comparable {
		public int compareTo(Object arg0) {
			return 0;
		}
	}
}
