Bug 399788

Description Gustavo Soares 2013-02-02 18:08:22 EST

Step 1: Create the classes:

package p1;
public class A {
  protected long k(  long a){
    return 6;
  }
}

package p2;
import p1.*;
public class B extends A {
  public long m(){
    return new B().k(2);
  }
  public long k(  int a){
    return 92;
  }
  public long test(){
    return m();
  }
}


Step 2: apply the pull up method to the m() method. Eclipse will show a warning:  Method p2.B.k(...) referenced in one of the moved elements is not accessible from type p1.A. However, if we apply the transformation regardless the warning, the resulting program will compile:

package p1;

import p2.B;

public class A {
  protected long k(  long a){
    return 6;
  }

public long m() {
    return new B().k(2);
  }
}

package p2;
import p1.*;
public class B extends A {
  public long k(  int a){
    return 92;
  }
  public long test(){
    return m();
  }
}
