A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
An anonymous class does not see a private method of the immediately enclosing class that is overloaded with a more visible (public, protected, or default) method of the same name.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Try to compile the supplied code.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The code should compile.
ACTUAL -
The code doesn't compile.

ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
C.java:7: foo() in C cannot be applied to (int)
new C() {{ foo( n + 1 ); }};
^
1 error


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
class C {
        static final void foo() {}
        static final void baz() {}

        private static final void foo( final int n ) {
                new C() {{ foo( n + 1 ); }};
        }

        private static final void bar( final int n ) {
                new C() {{ bar( n + 1 ); }};
        }

        static final void baz( final int n ) {
                new C() {{ baz( n + 1 ); }};
        }
}


---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Increase the visibility of the private method, or rename it -- observe that, in the example code supplied, there's an error for foo, but not for bar (no overloads) or baz (not private).
