A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :


B/c the constructor definition for ObjectName changed from 1.5 to 1.6

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
import java.util.Hashtable;
import java.util.Properties;

import javax.management.ObjectName;
import javax.management.MalformedObjectNameException;


/**
 * Hello world!
 *
 */
public class App
{
public String value = "hi";
public ObjectName objectName;
public Hashtable<String,String> props;
public Properties properties;

public App() {
}

    public static void main( String[] args ) throws MalformedObjectNameException
    {
App app = new App();

app.props = new Hashtable<String,String>();
app.props.put("11","22");

app.properties = new Properties();

app.properties.setProperty("1","a");
app.properties.setProperty("2","b");

app.objectName = new ObjectName("string name", app.properties);
        System.out.println( "Hello World! : " + app.value );
        System.out.println( "ObjectName is : " + app.objectName );
    }
}


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Hello World! : hi
ObjectName is : string name:2=b,1=a
ACTUAL -
Cannot even compile....
