Description Philipe Mulet CLA 2005-05-25 06:59:41 EDT 
Build N-20050525

Following code is incorrectly flagged with a cycle:

interface I<T extends I<? super T>> {}
public class X implements I<Y> {}
class Y extends X implements I<X> {}

where only bound check failure should be issued
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2005-05-25 07:00:07 EDT 
javac says:
X.java:7: type parameter X is not within its bound
class Y extends X implements I<X> {
                               ^
X.java:7: I cannot be inherited with different arguments: <X> and <Y>
class Y extends X implements I<X> {
^
2 errors
Comment 2 Kent Johnson CLA 2005-05-26 13:02:52 EDT 
We don't pass a much simpler test:

interface I<T> {}
class X implements I<Y> {}
class Y extends X implements I<Y> {}
