[aspectj-users] Is it a bug in the declare parents involving interfaces?

[Henrique Rebêlo <hemr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Consider the following code:

public interface I {}

public interface I2 {

  public class InnerClass{

   public static int i;

  }

}

public aspect A {

  declare parents: I extends I2;

  before(): execution(* I+.(..)){

    boolean b = I.InnerClass.i >= 0;

  }

}

This code does not compile when I use the declare parents. It does not recognize the inherited inner class. So, it complains when trying to access the static field i. If I comment the declare parents line, and explicitly make the interface I to extend the Interface I2, the code compiles. Is there something wrong? or Is it a compiler's bug related to the declare parents?

cheers,

Henrique
