Bug 549224

Description Miaoying Wang 2019-07-12 10:59:59 EDT

If there's an obvious bugs appears at the start of the line which is just next to a comment, just like the code showing below, the compiler should prompt user to check the bug instead of check the comment.

package com.application.areca.impl.tools;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import com.myJava.file.FileList.FileListIterator;
/** 
 * <BR>
 * @author Olivier PETRUCCI<BR>
 */
publRecoveryFilterMap {
  private Map content=new HashMap();
  public void add(  File archive,  String entry) throws IOException {
    com.application.areca.metadata.FileList entries=(com.application.areca.metadata.FileList)get(archive);
    if (entries == null) {
      entries=new com.application.areca.metadata.FileList();
      content.put(archive,entries);
    }
    entries.add(entry);
  }
  public com.application.areca.metadata.FileList get(  File archive){
    return (com.application.areca.metadata.FileList)content.get(archive);
  }

It is clear that something goes wrong with the Line 14, which might be corrected as "public class RecoveryFilterMap {". But the result of the compiler is shown below:
----------
1. ERROR in C:\DataG\RecoveryFilterMap.java (at line 9)
	import com.myJava.file.FileList.FileListIterator;
	                                                ^
Syntax error on token ";", interface expected after this token
----------
1 problem (1 error)

Under the impact of the comment, the compiler provides a bug report on the line step over the whole comment which causes the location far away from where the bug should be fixed.
