Build ID: I20070323-1616

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Create a test where test method is in inner class:

public class SomeContainerClass {
    public static class Innerclass {
        @Test
        public void test() {            
        }        
    }
}

2. Run it as JUnit test from Outline view where inner class can be selected.

3. Open JUnit result tab. Select 'test' method and run it from context menu.


More information:
We are developing a BDD framework on top of JUnit (see http://www.jdave.org/examples.html). It organizes tests using inner classes. We can run them with JUnit4 runners when annotating with @RunWith(JDaveRunner.class) but trying to run individual tests from JUnit tab fails. For instance,
if a test method is in inner class example.Foo$Bar, an error "The input type of lauch configuration does not exists" is displayed. The reason is that javaProject.findType(testTypeName); returns null when testTypeName is 'example.Foo$Bar'. This is the snippet from JUnit plugin code which gets executed:

        private final IJavaElement getTestTarget(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, IJavaProject javaProject) throws CoreException {
     ....
                String testTypeName= configuration.getAttribute(IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ATTR_MAIN_TYPE_NAME, ""); //$NON-NLS-1$
                if (testTypeName.length() != 0) {
                        testTypeName= performStringSubstitution(testTypeName);
                        IType type= javaProject.findType(testTypeName);
                        if (type != null) {
                                return type;
                        }
                }
                informAndAbort(JUnitMessages.JUnitLaunchConfigurationDelegate_input_type_does_not_exist, null, IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.ERR_UNSPECIFIED_MAIN_TYPE);
                return null; // not reachable
        }
