Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1-beta-b14, mixed mode)

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The JDK 1.4.1-beta compiler doesn't handle single line
comments at the end of the file, if there is no line break
after the comment.

REGRESSION. Last worked in version 1.4

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Try to compile the following class:

public class Test {
} // comment

When pasting the above class into a text file, you must
ensure that the file ends immediately after the 't' in the
word 'comment', meaning there is NO line break after it.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
The class should compile with no errors.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :

} // comment

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

} // comment

Put a line break after the comment.
