So, which do we follow, Sun's behavior or specification? Behavior-wise,
Classpath is correct because it behaves identically to the JDK;
specification-wise, both libraries are in error by not accepting the
above program as legal, and the fix for Classpath would be simply
No, javac and jikes are correct. Similarly, it is possible for a
private field to hide a visible field:
class A {
public int i;
}
class B extends A {
private int i;
}
class C extends B {
void foo() {
// illegal, i is hidden in B, and A's i is not available
// i++;
}
}
