[Ralf Neubauer <Ralf.Neubauer@epost.de>]

Package: gcj-3.3
Version: 1:3.3-1.bunk.2
Severity: normal

the compilation of

A.java:
interface A {
    static class B {
    }
}

C.java:
interface C extends A {
    B getB();
}

D.java:
class D {
    public static void main (String[] argv) {
        Object o = new C() {
                public B getB() {
                    return new B();
                }
        };
    }
}

dies with

C.java:2: error: Type `B' not found in the declaration of the return
type of method `getB'.
       B getB();
       ^
1 error
./C.java:2: error: Type `B' not found in the declaration of the return
type of method `getB'.
       B getB();
       ^
D.java:4: error: Type `B' not found in the declaration of the return
type of method `getB'.
                public B getB() {
                          ^
2 errors


It works with the advertized as very standard compliant jikes, so i
assume this may be an error of gcj-3.3.
