The error is in the Sun compiler, not Eclipse, and there is an existing bug in Sun's bug database for this (http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6337964) which looks like it may recently have been fixed. The Java Language Spec (section 9.7) clearly accepts a final comma. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 112433 *** |
The parsing of @SuiteClasses does not behave properly when the last entry ends with a comma: @SuiteClasses({ foo.class, bar.class, bazz.class, }) The Eclipse compiler does not flag an error here, but should. Unlike array initializers, the final comma is not legal in this context, or at least is not considered legal by the Sun and Apple compilers. -- Configuration Details -- Product: Eclipse 1.3.0.20100526-1935 (org.eclipse.epp.package.java.product) Installed Features: org.eclipse.jdt 3.6.0.v20100520-0800-7z8XFUJFMTfCW8oRvdJkums9H155
