Description pf yu CLA 2011-10-10 05:59:28 EDT 
Build Identifier: 201110090901

The constructor Delegate() is undefined

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Check out project "org.eclipse.edt.eunit.test" from kan-cvs.
2. Add java generator to the project.
3. Clean the whole workspace.
4. The error exists in:
fvt.delegates.TestDelegate01Lib.java
Comment 1 Brian Svihovec CLA 2011-10-10 14:17:57 EDT 
The TestDelegate01Lib library seems to have issues with JavaGen for 2 variations:

1) testDelegateAsINParameter1a - 
generates:
AnyBoxedObject<org.eclipse.edt.javart.Delegate> eze$Temp3 = EAny.ezeWrap(new org.eclipse.edt.javart.Delegate());
		
with the error:
the constructor is undefined

2) testDelegateAsINOUTParameter - 
generates:
new org.eclipse.edt.javart.Delegate("testerForINOUT", this, String.class) = EString.ezeCast(eze$Temp1.ezeUnbox());

with the error:
The left-hand side of an assignment must be a variable

Commenting out these two variations should make the rest of the library usable, so I am lowering this to a Normal Severity and changing the priority to P1.

PengFei,

Please do NOT comment out the test case, as it will be hard to find it later

please use LogResult.skip("Bug360419") instead for these 2 test cases.
Comment 3 Jeff Douglas CLA 2011-10-20 16:58:21 EDT 
I have updated javagen to handle delegates, HOWEVER ... this testcase is invalid because it is trying to pass the name of a function as an inout (and out) delegate parameter. This is not allowed and validation needs to prevent this.

Think about it. How can the name of a function be modified by inout or out?
Comment 4 Paul Harmon CLA 2011-11-07 15:15:51 EST 
This was fixed indirectly by Bug 362587. The function is now considered to be a value type and so cannot be passed to the inout/out reference parm (delegate).
