Description Markus Keller CLA 2011-06-20 15:03:22 EDT 
BETA_JAVA7

The error message considers AutoCloseable as a class here:

public class TryWithResources3 {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		try (Object res= 0) {
			
		} catch (Exception e) {
		}
	}
}

Error message:
    The resource type Object has to be a subclass of java.lang.AutoCloseable

Expected:
    The resource type Object must implement java.lang.AutoCloseable
Comment 1 Srikanth Sankaran CLA 2011-06-20 23:25:46 EDT 
I'll fix it.

We now issue an error message that says:

"The resource type Object does not implement java.lang.AutoCloseable"

Comment 4 Olivier Thomann CLA 2011-06-21 11:47:05 EDT
