A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Other bugs exist in the database, and have been fixed for various method arguments and return types in java.lang.Class that use the raw type instead of the wildcard; but there are still several references to the raw type that appear to need to be fixed:

    Constructor<T> getConstructor(Class...)
should be:
    Constructor<T> getConstructor(Class<?>...)

    Class[] getDeclaredClasses()
should be:
    Class<?>[] getDeclaredClasses()

    Constructor<T> getDeclaredConstructor(Class...)
should be:
    Constructor<T> getDeclaredConstructor(Class<?>...)

    Constructor[] getDeclaredConstructors()
should be:
    Constructor<T>[] getDeclaredConstructors()

    Method getDeclaredMethod(String, Class...)
should be:
    Method getDeclaredMethod(String, Class<?>...)

    Method getMethod(String, Class...)
should be:
    Method getMethod(String, Class<?>...)


And also:

java.lang.Member:
    Class getDeclaringClass()
should be:
    Class<?> getDeclaringClass()


(These cause compiler warnings in JSE 5.) Are these also scheduled to be fixed before release?


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
