Description Markus Keller

HEAD, was OK in 3.7M3

- load org.eclipse.search.tests from
:pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/eclipse

=> Wrong compile errors, e.g. in AnnotationManagerTest:
It calls new "TestSuite(AnnotationManagerTest.class)", but apparently, the constructor
    public TestSuite(final Class<? extends TestCase> theClass) {...}\
cannot be found any more.

A similar compile error occurs in org.eclipse.jdt.core.formatter.CodeFormatterApplication:
NLS#initializeMessages(String, Class<?>) cannot be resolved here:

		static {
			NLS.initializeMessages(BUNDLE_NAME, Messages.class);
		}

I meant:
Caused *by* the fix for bug 328689.

Srikanth, don't we also need the check for java.lang.Class (similar to what was done org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.lookup.Scope.computeCompatibleMethod(MethodBinding, TypeBinding[], InvocationSite) line 538-542) inside 
org.eclipse.jdt.internal.compiler.lookup.Scope.parameterCompatibilityLevel(MethodBinding, TypeBinding[]) ?

We are still testing, but it appears that the fix for
bug 186565 also appears to address this problem. Stay
tuned.

Olivier confirmed (Thanks!) that both the scenerii
reported in comment#0 and comment#1 are covered by
the fix for 186565.

I close the current bug as WORKSFORME (since it is not
exactly a duplicate of bug 186565)
