Custom Login Module -> JDK1.5 compiler error on super.initia

[wcrosman]

...
public class RMROracleJBossLoginModule
extends UsernamePasswordLoginModule {

...
public void initialize(Subject arg0, CallbackHandler arg1, Map arg2,
Map arg3) {
super.initialize(arg0, arg1, arg2, arg3);
...
}

}


[javac] C:\code\weblib\src\java\gov\wapa\rmr\web\security\OracleJBossLoginModule.java:406: abstract method initialize(javax.security.auth.Subject,javax.security.auth.callback.CallbackHandler,java.util.Map<java.lang.String,?>,java.util.Map<java.lang.String,?>) in javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule cannot be accessed directly
[javac] super.initialize(arg0, arg1, arg2, arg3);


Note: even though I extend UserNameLoginModule the error indicates I can't directly access javax.security.auth.spi.LoginModule.

This code compiles correctly under jdk1.4.2_05. Any thoughts?
Did the signature change for 1.5?

[starksm64]

The signature has changed for the addition of the generics, but it should be compatible with the previous version. This looks like a compiler bug to me.

[starksm64]

Yes, this is a compiler bug documented here:

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6178365

and I see that you have found it by your comments there.

wcrosman, do you try 1.5.0_01-b08?
I have exactly same problem, I download 1.5.0_01-b08 but it isn't help me

[wcrosman]

Yes, I have 1.5.0_01, but have not attempted to compile the code in question. Rather, I've an Ant build that compiles using 1.4.x , creates a jar library and add that library to my web app.

[starksm64]

The codebase is compiled every night with jdk1.5.1_01 using a source target of 1.4.

[m.andrew]

Thanks. I'll do the same. I hope sun knows about this bug
