Bug 343693

Description Srikanth Sankaran 2011-04-23 21:41:16 EDT

All of the subclasses of AllocationExpression need to be
inspected to see if they need to change suitably for <>

With the patch posted at bug 339478 comment 33 (this patch
addresses, AE and QAE fully) compiler support is fully in place,
but code select fails in the following test case:

public class X<T> {
        T field1;
        public X(T param) {
            field1 = param;
        }
        public static void testFunction(String param){
            System.out.println(1);
        }
        public static void testFunction(Object Param) {
            System.out.println(2);
        }
        public T getField() {
            return field1;
        }
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            X.testFunction(new X<>("hello").getField());
        }
}

Clicking on the X just before the <> takes me to the class rather
than to the constructor. If the type was not elided, it takes me
to the constructor.

The subclasses around javadoc, completion, selection and code snippet
evaluation needs to change suitably. Ayush, please engage Satyam as
needed. Please mark me as reviewer - Thanks.
