Build Identifier: I20100608-0911 Compile class with two methods with params List<X> and List<Y> respectively, and distinct return types. This works with javac (1.6.0_21), but Eclipse complains. If I change the return type to be the same, then javac complains too (as now the erased method signatures really are identical). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Compile this class in Eclipse: import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; public class EclipseBugDemo { public static boolean foo(List<String> x) {return true;} public static int foo(List<Integer> x) {return 1;} }
