This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. -- The automated Eclipse Genie. |
Build ID: M20071023-1652 Steps To Reproduce: Consider the program package a; class A {// not public! public void m() {} } package a; public class B extends A {} package b; import a.B; public class C { B b; void n() { b.m(); } } Generalizing declared type of b to A breaks the program, since m() in A is not accessible for C.
