Re: [jdt-core-dev] ecj output of Elements.getAllMembers() differs from j

[Jayaprakash Arthanareeswaran <jarthana@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The Javac behavior looks correct to me.
I can't find anything specific to generic methods, the API doc does specify
 "All methods
_declared_ in this type".
Can you please report this as a bug
so we can take it from there?

Thanks,
Jay

ecj output of Elements.getAllMembers() differs from

Hello everyone,

I am currently writing an annotation processor for classes
that use generics. Since I am new to APT and am not sure whether this is
an actual issue I am asking here first.

Given the following interfaces:

interface Test2<T extends java.io.Serializable>
{ String test(T test); }
interface Test extends Test2<Long> { }

Calling Elements.getAllMembers() on Test's TypeElement
in javac returns:

String test(T)

In ecj it returns:

String test(String)

Is this the intended behavior?

I realize that ecj's output is "more correct"
but javac's output can be later used for reflection. E.g. calling getMethod
with a String argument type doesn't work due to type erasure.

Am I using the wrong method? Should I traverse the supertypes
"manually" instead?

If required I can upload some test code to github that
demonstrates this.

Thanks in advance,

Arlo
