-----------------------------------------
Thanks for the fix, JB. However I'd like to understand a bit better why this
was needed.
I re-ran a full build from scratch before your change and that succeeded fine
for me.
So let's take a look at one of these, line 98 in the PropertiesLoginModule, now
contains a cast to String:
userInfos = (String) users.get(user);
why is this needed?
users is of type org.apache.felix.utils.properties.Properties. And this
Properties type is declared as:
public class Properties extends AbstractMap<String, String> {
So by applying the generics rules, get() should already be returning a String.
In fact my editor (Eclipse) automatically removes this new cast as being
unneccesary.
I'm just trying to understand what is causing the failure you were seeing...
