Bug #: 33842
Summary: Build errors on fresh setup
Product: Wikimedia Mobile
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: android
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
I just grabbed the code for this project and opened it up in my eclipse.
I was getting build errors for the project immediately.
I do not have those error messages anymore but the cause of them was
discovered.
The three errors each referred to an instance where the @Override annotation
was used on a method, but the method did not actually override any methods in a
superclass.
I believe this is because in java 1.6 you can use @Override on methods that
override interface methods.
The solution was to use
Right click on the project -> Properties -> Java Compiler and set the compiler
compliance level to Java 1.6 (it was previously 1.5).
I don't know if this was due to my Eclipse on my computer or some property file
in the code base. At the very least a useful note about this issue in the
instructions would be helpful.
