Ooops, had the wrong class as the test. Correct, just tried to compile this:
public class OverrideIsHell
{
public interface A
{
public void a();
}
public class B implements A
{
@Override
public void a()
{
}
}
}
with ANT:
<project name="test" default="dist">
<!--
<property name="build.compiler"
value="org.eclipse.jdt.core.JDTCompilerAdapter"/>
-->
<target name="dist">
<delete dir="tmp/classes" />
<mkdir dir="tmp/classes" />
<javac destdir="tmp/classes" source="1.5" target="1.5">
<src location="src2" />
</javac>
</target>
</project>
With javac, this compiles cleanly (1.6). With ecj:
dist:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file to /home/dweiss/...test/tmp/classes
[javac] ----------
[javac] 1. ERROR in /home/dweiss/...test/src2/OverrideIsHell.java

If you go with javac again, but from the 1.5 JDK:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file to /home/dweiss/... test/tmp/classes
[javac] ...test/src2/OverrideIsHell.java:10: method does not
override a method from its superclass
