Tests & fix have been pushed to BETA_JAVA8 via commit 874cd7abbf7920fe3082baf91be06fbb27247657 |
BETA_JAVA8: The following program should be rejected since an default method is never allowed to be override-equivalent with a public instance method of the class Object (as it is pointless since it will never be chosen for dispatch ever). It is not rejected as of now. //---------- interface I { public String toString () default { return "";} }
