Difference of behaviour in Eclipse 3.5 and 3.6 [message #553938]

Hi,
I recently started using Helios and imported my existing projects into a workspace created with Helios.

The same set of files in Galileo, do not show any error but in Helios, I have an error on a particular line of code throughout.

The files are built after cleaning and they execute as expected. The marker view also does not show any compilation error.

But this line of code is marked red and gives an error such as
"The method listWith(T...) from the type CollectionUtility refers to the missing type T"

This is referring to the method which has the signature like this.....

static public <T> List<T> listWith(T... args) {
......
......
}

The codeformatter and other code style preferences are the same in Galileo and Helios.

Please let me know if this is due to some preference/setting in Helios.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Srikanth

The reason is that one of your projects is compiling with 1.4 but a
dependent project or library is compiled using 1.5. While this is not
really a problem, it surfaces

Hi Dani,

Thanks! That was indeed the problem. But the actual issue was that in Galileo, when I corrected the concerned project and rebuilt (with cleaning) the errors were gone.

In Helios, the same did not happen. After I read the link sent from you I thought of setting the compiler setting to each of the projects to 1.6 and then cleaned and rebuilt. Only then did the error vanish from the java file.

Thanks again.

Srikanth
