By all means file a bug report about the typo. ;-)
I also found this while working an example in "Core Java 1.1", v.2,
"ZipTest". If I changed a method which exhibited the bug from:
public void scanZipFile()
{ fileList.removeAll();
try...
to
public void scanZipFile()
{ if (fileList.getItemCount() != 0)
fileList.removeAll();
try...
then the bug went away.
FWIW.

P.S. Where it is really irritating, and you cannot do anything to change
it, is the "GroupReader" applet at JavaSoft's Java Developer's
Connection. Grrrr!
