(metadata) AnnotationTypeMemberDeclarations allows ClassDeclaration and others

Name: rmT116609 Date: 02/09/2004


FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c, mixed mode)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
in the jsr175 spec (metadata-1_0-prd-spec/metadata-public-draft.html), the AnnotationTypeMemberDeclaration production allows:
        ConstantDeclaration
        ClassDeclaration
        InterfaceDeclaration
        EnumDeclaration
        AnnotationTypeDeclaration

but the compile doesn't want to seem to have a bar of it.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
compile the following code


ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
foo\metadata\Annot2.java:6: an @interface may not contain a type declaration
    public class InnerClass
           ^
foo\metadata\Annot2.java:13: an @interface may not contain a type declaration
    public enum InnerEnum {
           ^


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
package foo.metadata;

public @interface Annot2 {
    String value();
    
    public class InnerClass
    {
        public void foo() {
            System.out.println("Annot2.InnerClass.foo");
        }
    }

    public enum InnerEnum {
        RED, GREEN, BLUE;
        public void foo() {
            System.out.println("Annot2.InnerEnum.foo");
        }
    }
    
}
