java version "1.4.0-beta3"

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta3-b84, mixed mode)



public class v {

    public static void main(String argv []) {

        v.x.print(); // works fine

        (new v()).x.print1();

    }



    static class x {

        public static void print() {

            System.out.println("Doe something");

        }



        public static void print1() {

            System.out.println("Doe something");

        }

    }

}



With JDK1.4.0-beta3:

$% javac v.java
v.java:7: unexpected type
required: class, package
found : value
        (new v()).x.print1();
        ^
1 error



The test case worked fine with 1.4.0-beta, 1.4.0-beta2.

$ % javac v.java
$% java v
Doe something
Doe something


With JDK1.3.1_01:
