yes, i realized this (also explained on the bug).

What tricked me was that neither I or emmanuel must have been using
the latest javac ;)

> That is a rather basic generics error that is a bug in javac since
> Properties is typed as Map<Object,Object>, not Map<String,String>. You
> are asking to be able to do (replacing ? with String to be more
> concrete):
>
> Map<Object,Object> m1 = ...;
> Map<String,String> m2 = (Map<String,String>) m1;
>
> javac disallows this as it should since one would be able to do the
> following otherwise:
> m1.put("one", new Integer(1));
> String one = m2.get("one"); // CCE since Integer !instanceof String
>
> In the Properties case javac must be getting lost in the non-trivial
> inheritance tree. See the following for discussions of the less
> intuitive aspects of generics:
